    Default First straight razor is here.

    I recently ordered a shavette from amazon and the box it was supposed to arrive in came today containing something other than a shavette. I don't think I am going to complain... Although I guess I am a little conflicted.

    Sometimes, Amazon errors work in your favour. Now, it's time to get it honed...

    I don't know for straight out of the box it works pretty well on the Bic --> SR scale I would say at least a Mach3. I'll have to get another one before I send that one off to be honed.

    MonkeyKoder,

    The Dovo Best is an excellent 'work-horse' of a razor; I really am attached to mine

    Have fun !

    Best regards

    Russ

    I couldn't have got one had I ordered one which makes me rather happy with the results. I've wanted to shave with a straight razor since I was 14 never could find one that I could afford. Now it seems someone is telling me I made the right choice and that I now need to order a strop...
