You mean a 2Bismarck by Dovo, like the one shown in my SOTD's picture?
In my opinion, this is a good razor, not a truly good one, but however a good choice in its price range. In my case, this was a gift and it was also sold as "shave ready", however it was not and needed to be honed. It shaves very well although it is not as "deep" as other razors.
Enjoy it! I am sure you will show us your new razor soon.

It is the same as yours but in black scales. I don't hope that it will shave like an onld Sheffield steel razor, but I realy like its design.
