    I think you did bl00dy well, my friend.
    Make sure you get it professionally honed before you try to use it though.
    Hang on and enjoy the ride...

    Very nice. Get it pro honed and you'll be in business. I hear Neil Miller is as good as they come. He also makes superlative strops. Send him a PM unless you know someone else in the UK that you'd prefer. Just IMHO.

    I saw that one, but i have two Dovo's and I'm really only collecting old sheffields now. I can vouch for Neil, excellent guy who will hone your new razor beautifully. My first shave was a factory finish Dovo and it was torturous so defo get it honed

    The problem is he live in USA, and I dont know how long it will take, and today cos I ordered a pipe block from the USA the Fking customs here charged me 12 pound, and all it is ,is a block of wood for me to carve out a pipe.

    Na, Neil is in UK. I believe he hit's Wales on occasion, Falls off of walls and sits in the pubs, and does the King George Ramble!
    Shoot him a PM.
    Tell him Tom the Gnome sent you!

    I've been charged 17 quid twice, one for a 40 quid razor the other 65. The third the boy sent to me with no recepit inside. If you get him to send it as a gift, you might be able to avoid the customs. For some reason I've bought several from Israel and they get through no probs. they are S%*t hot when it comes to the states though. It's a pity as most of the nice razors are in the states.

    I sold a good used one 2 years ago for about that much. I would say you did well. I have heard many good things about Neil Miller. He is in the UK.

    TONY Miller is in the US, and they are most certainly NOT the same person! =P
