Please Note:
"Change of Mind" returns are only available if the factory seal of the Dovo Product Packaging is not broken (unfortunately you can't open & inspect the razor and then return it). That's for hygienic reasons and we won't be able to sell returned razors "As New" with a broken seal.
All Dovo straight razors come with a factory edge. While Dovo certifies each razor has passed several quality control checks and is ready to shave, after being stropped, it will not be the most efficient or comfortable shave. We highly recommend having your new razor professionally honed to your personal preference to achieve the best shave performance.
Maintenance:
Maintaining straight razors requires stropping usually before and after every use. Proper stropping with the occasional use of a linen strop with an abrasive compound can maintain the blade edge for a long time, but at some point, resharpening (honing) is required.
Most straight razors are made of carbon steel. To avoid stains, rinse your blade with warm water after shaving (don't use any cleaners or alcohol on the scales). Next, dab it dry with a cloth without touching the cutting edge and stow it open to dry completely. Between two applications there should be at least 48 hours so that the burr can realign itself. If you are not going to use your razor for a longer period of time, apply a bit of acid-free oil to it.
MATERIAL
This straight razor is made of carbon steel with the material number 1.2210, better known as silver steel. In order to achieve a hardness of approximately 61 HRC, the material is heated to over 1000 degrees celsius and then immediately quenched with a special oil. The subsequent tempering at about 200 degrees celsius gives the blade elasticity and toughness.
HANDLE MATERIAL
Ebony is one of the most valuable woods on earth. It is extremely hard and heavy. Therefore, it is perfect for the production of a high-quality handle. Its structure allows the wood to retain its shape even in humid environments and prevents swelling of the material. Several grind cycles are necessary to create the silky smooth surface.
GRIND
During hollow grinding, the straight razor is ground concavely from the back to the cutting edge. This design combines great flexibility with high torsional rigidity in longitudinal form. Enjoy the satisfying sound and feel of a gentle shave from the vibration of the razor blade trimming your facial hair.
PRODUCT DETAILS
The Spanish point is an elaborately designed shape for razor points. Its unique shape comes from its concave form with a slightly rounded tip. This rounding also facilitates the shaving of complicated areas around the ears, nose, and dimples. Such a design offers you high precision without having to sacrifice security and control.
BLADE WIDTH
5/8 inch razors are true all-rounders and can do any wet shaving task with flying colours. The blade is relatively heavy and can therefore glide gently over your skin without great pressure. At the same time, it is still nimble enough to manage even more technically demanding passages around the nose, ears, and chin.
