Available is a 5/8" Dovo Straight Razor w/ Acrylic Scales. This razor was crafted by the experts in Solingen, Germany world renowned for their quality metal and razors produced. Custom acrylic scales were crafted specifically for this beauty of a blade, and have a white spacer. Blade has an engraving.

This blade is ground with a round point tip, making it more forgiving of a shaver, moreso than a spike point. Two gold pin design looks very sexy with these scales! This would make a good starter straight razor for someone getting into wet-shaving, or a nice option for a seasoned veteran.

This straight razor makes for a great razor because of its medium size and comfortable shave provided. Ground with a hollow grind, this will plow down stubble with no trouble. Blade has been carefully buffed, and has a brilliant mirror shine. Truly a masterpiece!

Restoration:

This razor underwent our complete Straight Razor Restoration Service. It was first polished, removing any past oxidization revealing new metal and a spectacular mirror shine. Next, the scales were cleaned and polished.

"Honing starts out on a Chosera 1000 Wet stone were I begin to set the bevel. Once the bevel outline is finished I move onto the Chosera 3000 where the bevel is cleaned up and refined. Next its on to the polishing stage which starts out on the Aishyama 6000 and moves to the naniwa 12000. After the 12k, a perfectly good shave can occur. But we like to take it one step further and finish with a high polish on the Suehiro Gokumyo 20000." Eric, Razor Miester. After honing, the blade is stropped, oiled, and arrives shave ready! Please do not strop this razor before your first shave.
