    If I were to have the cash for either, a custom for sure. Just something about the idea of having a non-mass produced single-man hand crafted razor that makes me want to go to the bank

    Depends what type of person you are.

    I'd rather have 1 incredibly sexy looking blade, than 5 okay ones. Less maintenance/storage requirements. More time to enjoy it and get used to it's feel without the temptation to switch to another blade.

    Throw that blade in a nice case and you've got the Holy Grail sitting in front of you for all to see.

    TI 6/8, 1/2 grind ram's horn pontoon dreadnaught on my wishlist. Looks like the meaning of love.

    Good Luck

    I have a Brian Custom It shaves great I am in the process of getting him to make me another. I also have a Tim Zowada being made I have 7 Hart Steels and its time for me to move on to the customs. I have one of Robrert Williams SRP razors I have nothing but good things to say about any of the customs I have. They may coast a bit more but you get what you pay for pure quality and workman ship.

    I would go for a custom myself.
    I've bought a few of them over the years, and most of them are superb works of functioning art.
    Very well functioning at that
    And the knowledge of owning a one off is nice...
    Nothing wrong with Dovo's though.
    I have a couple, and do find them to be great shavers.

    Um, all of them, any of them that have been in front of me over all these years....

    I've had my share of Dovo's and TIS.. Now all that's in my rotation are 3 wade & butchers 3 customs 2 from Brian Brown 1 from Charlie Lewis and one Hart Steel.. Go custom all the way. Nothing like cutting with a straight that was made just for you.
