OK, to clear up any confusion, I didn't fix my Dovo best quality razor right away, as I had two other professionally honed vintage razors. I am not saying to try your hand at honing a messed up razor just yet. I used my other two razors until I got more razors in and then after a couple months using said razors honed by pros I started my foray into honing.
It was three months in when I fixed my Dovo!
