Thank you. If you have a chance to get one you wont be disapointed. She really took a fantastic edge. Im thinking she gave me a better shave than my celebrated hollow.

I am still trying to deal with the double task of finding the angle, but using no pressure.... It'll come, I know... but I am really liking the Dovo razor, and I am enjoying the ritual of strop, lather, shave.... nice start to the day.

Barry,
That's the name of the game. And you said it buddy: "It'll come". Mind the angles/pressure and don't be afraid to experiment with them a bit. Push the envelop...After all, you have 180º freedom of movement when it comes to straights. Remember: One size doesn't fit all...in this case, every razor is different and the ideal angle/pressure for one may be different than another. Keep having fun.

Notes: A brilliant shave tonight. The MWF needs no presentation, exellent suds as always. The razor was gliding effortlessly through any stubble, and the splash left me engulfed in a fragrant bliss. I got this razor a while back and finally got the scales redone, it is now sporting horn scales with a bone wedge. I need to take some pics in daylight for the scales to show properly. I am very happy with both it's looks and it's performance.
Having friends over this weekend, their 5yo daughter is very picky and won't hug anyone that has stubble on account of it being "prickly! Ouch!". We'll see if I pass the test

Sten,
beautiful work on the rescales buddy. Nicely done...Also, a great choice of software too. MWF is an amazing soap. Everytime I use it, I fall deeper in love with it. Enjoy your friends' visit.

Nic,
I know all too well what you mean. I have one (mine is the Respecto)...These hold deep sentimental value for folks like us.
