This might be an odd question but I just received my first new razor, a Dovo Natural which has a 5/8 round tip blade. Comparing that to my vintage 5/8 round tip Shumate, the Dovo looks gigantic with the blade seeming wider, and the tang and tail bigger as well. Also the full hollow grind of the Dovo doesn't seem to be as thin as the Shumate either. It's a beautiful razor and I'm going to enjoy getting the most out of it but was wondering if anyone else thinks that todays razors are beefier than yesterday's razors.

Oh and I measured again and the Shumate does measure out to 5/8 unless I've forgotten how to read a ruler.
