    I had a similar problem.
    My Dovo came from a shop, that specifically say the make the razor shave ready if you want.
    As it was my first razor, I had them make it shave ready. The only thing they did, was stropping the razor.
    So I send it to a member to inspect it and hone it if needed.
    The razor didn't turn out very bad, but it still needed a bit of honing.
    A very strange aspect is that the people from the shop give shaving lessons and in the little book they give you, it even says: "don't believe anyone who says a new Dovo rasor needs to be honed."

    I think it's safe to say not all sellers know how to completely make a razor shave ready.
    So I agree with previous advices, send the razor to someonee who knows what he's doing, so he can look at your razor and hone it if needed.
    That way, if something doesn't feel good afterwards, you can blame it on your technique 100%, like me

    Sometimes I feel normal.
    Then it's time to lay down and wait for it to pass.
