Hi All,

As a matter of curiosity, how much hone wear is acceptable/usual on a brand new razor? The reason I ask is that I was in a store the other day looking at a new Dovo and noticed quite a bit of hone wear on the spine. In fact, the wear was also uneven. I asked the assistant if it was new or used - they assured me it was new.

I think I read somewhere that Dovo finish their blades off by hand, so I suppose some hone marks are inevitable. But this was way more than just marks, and I was suprised by it.

James.
