    As I mentioned, after just over a year, I seem to be landing more and more in the TI camp.
    Do you have an opinion as to how TI's shave in comparison to Dovo's and modern day Bokers? I have one each, but I'm lusting after a TI, and I'm wondering if they're worth the premium price.

    I have two Dovo's, one half-hollow 5/8 Best Quality and one full hollow 6/8 Bismarck, the older one with the inlay on the scales.

    Both shave well, the Bismarck is excellent, found it a bit harsh at first, but is fantastic nonetheless.

    The TI's are all C135 Carbon, all extra-hollow, and for me, a step up from all the shavers I have. Also have a Boker King Cutter.

    In my opinion, for me, the TI's hit my sweet spot, others it's the Double Ducks, or the W&B Wedges...each to their own.

    But as the saying goes, you won't know till you try one....

    What is not to love here? Really nice blade. Nice worked spine and beautiful scales. I love my TIs. Congrats!
