    They're not usually shave ready from the manufacturing plant. Don't be surprised if you need to have it honed. Great find, even if it's not shave ready though!

    At £25 it might not be shave ready but getting it honed might cost another £10 is still worth it. I would gladly pay £35 for a shave ready Dovo.

    Sorry if I gave the wrong impression. I think that's a great deal, like you said, even if it needs to be honed. Just a warning to the OP as it sounded like he was just going to strop it and try it. There's nothing wrong if it needs honed, but may not be comfortable to shave with yet.

    +1 on Cove5440's advice. I would get it honed before shaving with it.

    And congratulations on your purchase. The Dovo "Special" is one of their best-looking and best-selling razors.
