Thread: Where can a buy this Dovo razor from?

I am looking to purchase the Dovo ‘Ebony’ razor item ref: 415835 but it seems the UK have run out of every single one. I've been searching the net and I can't find a single place that has them in stock or that sells it. Does anyone know where I can buy one from?

Yes but it's out of stock. Most of them are.

I was going to suggest the same vendor but noticed it was out of stock in both 5 and 6/8. Is it the scales in particular that are the attraction ? From what I understand the steel is the same in all models. Just the gingerbread makes the difference.

Well, I would have gone for this one, item ref: 558130 558130 but the steel is carbon steel. The one that I want is stainless steel.

Well if you make sure to clean and dry it after your shaves it won't make much difference. Don't store it in a humid area ..... I.E. in the bath area. Stainless stains less , but is not immune from corrosion unless the same attention is paid to it. I'm a carbon over stainless guy anyway, though I have a number of SS razors and they are fine.

I honestly can't believe how thre are so few options, so few manufactures and so few stock levels. There is not one single store in England that sell straight razors. On the invisable edge site the waiting time is 6 to 10 months. Considering the demand for the Dovo razors it really beggers believe. Anyway if I'm going to get a carbon steel one I might as well go for the lowest value Dovo razor. I like the look of it and it's in stock.

check the The Classic Edge Shaving Store Your Straight Razor Specialists. ...they are amazing retailers!!!

What in particular are you looking for? Stainless? 5/8 or 6/8? What type of point? Have you considered some of the other modern mfg's?

I'm sure you already know, but many business's let their stock run low towards the end of the year & gear up in the beginning of the new year. If you have patience I am sure you can find what you want or if you must have something maybe we can point you in the right direction.

Thanks for your reply guys. I'm looking for a Stainless blade, 5/8, black scales which is not bulky. I want the scales to be sleek and practical. The 415835 model fits that description perfectly but they are all gone.

As a percentage of the world population we straight shavers are definitely a minority. I'm just glad that there are a few mfgs that make a quality and affordable razor nowadays.
