Thread: Dovo Special 6/8

I would be most grateful if anyone would please advise where I can purchase online, from a reliable dealer, a Dovo Special imitation tortoise shell 6/8 (not the 5/8) which is shave-ready after being treated by a honemaster. I can't find one on Classic Shaving or Straight Razor Designs (Ahhh!).

I'd also appreciate any tips on where I can find a list of reputable online retailers like Classic Shaving or Straight Razor Designs, who have in-house honemasters, as I don't want purchase a non-shave-ready blade.

Thanks in advance

I wish I knew why dovo discontinued the 6/8 special. It is really a great shaver. I wonder if the 5/8 is just as good?

They did? When did that happen? That was an incredibly popular model....

PiBeard be sure to enter the December SRP Giveaway first prize is the razor you desire, good luck.

Thanks Sunbird. I have a friend who lent me his Boker and his Dovo to compare. The guy is my best mate and he has a huge collection Lovely shave, but the Dovo is just that bit smoother. I think though the Boker will be my second purchase.

Thanks irb123 - Found it! Can't believe I missed it!

Another option is The Invisible Edge in the UK.
