Ignorance is bliss...
The ignorance of others that is..
I bought this Dovo Inox for $50 because the guy "didn't like the shave" and "he'd rather stick to DE safety razors"...
it turned out he bought the razor and assumed it was shave ready out of the box, which it wasn't off course..
ran it across the 4k/8k a few times, finished on CrOx, stropped it up and it shaved like a cloud caressing your cheek
so I guess I should be feeling somewhat bad about not telling him about the factory edges and honing but hey I just couldn't pass this sweet thing up .

You dirty dog! Nice score, I like this one. I'm sure the guy got what he wanted for the razor and that is all that really matters, he's happy and you're really happy...
For all you know he paid $25 for it heheheLast edited by Trimmy72; 03-22-2014 at 05:45 PM.

You should feel very bad. In fact I think you should send it to me to be free of your guilt.

I would feel as badly as you do. But I would have bought the razor for $50 without question. It normally sells for $160 - $180. Nice buy. Wish I came across friends like that.
