    Default Dovo "Special" Imitation Tortoise

    I have received quite a few of these razors lately from the ClassicShaving folks for honing and thought it would be worth mentioning to you guys that they really seem to be a nice value. They are really classy looking razors, hone up nicely and shave well. In addition they have a 4/8, 5/8 and 6/8 blade ranging in price from $69 to $79.

    Have fun.

    Thanks for the heads-up Lynn! It means alot to us newbies to hear feedback like that from a veteran.

    I have added it to my wish list for consideration.

    Lynn - is this a full hollow or something else - I believe someone has suggested that this might be heavier than a full hollow - but the description on classicshaving indicates otherwise.

    There is a review of this razor with pictures over at B&B.

    Looks like a full hollow to me. I've only shaved with one DOVO razor, but it was a competent shaver, so I'd expect great quality from a new blade for a very reasonable price from DOVO. I also like this scale design.

    There's a review and discussion of this razor currently underway in the razor section of B&B, also.

    Are all the Swedish blades from Dovo the same, just different scales?
