Dorkos

I was looking at Dorkos and found one I like. Anyone have any experience with these? Ive always liked the way they look but curious how they shave.

I've got two, a vintage 6/8 and a recent 7/8, the 7/8 is stiffer than the 6/8. How do they shave? I like both. I find my 7/8 shaves very much like my Wacker 7/8, maybe that helps if you know the Wacker.

I have 3 Dorkos and they are all great shavers. Ones a 6/8s stainless and the others are 7/8s carbon.

never had any complaints about mine !!

Never owned one myself, but I sure have loved honing quite a few of them :)
They are excellent shavers

Between a Whacker and a Dorko which do you prefer for those of you who have had both.

Great razors that provide a great shave. Any opportunity to post pics.

I own both and have honed tons of both. Vintage Dorko hands down!!

Five years ago the vintage Dorkos were hot the way dubl duck wonderedges and Fillys are nowadays. Big $ to score on the bay if they were in excellent or better condition. I guess the emergence of Dorko blanks kind of took the focus off the vintage stuff, but they have a great reputation.

I am very partial to the vintage variety of Dorkos and Revisors. They shave better than my Wackers.
I highly recommend vintage Dorkos.........
