MATERIAL

This straight razor is made from carbon steel with the material designation 1.2210, better known as silver steel. To achieve a hardness of about 61 HRC, the material is heated to over 1000 degrees and then immediately quenched with a special oil. The subsequent tempering at about 200 degrees gives the blade elasticity and toughness.
 

HANDLE MATERIAL

PMMA, also known as acrylic glass, is a thermoplastic. Through an elaborate polishing process, the material gains its unmistakable shine and emphasizes the high-quality appearance of DOVO straight razors. You don't need special care for the material; simply wipe off soap residue and dirt with a damp cloth.

GRIND

In hollow grinding, the straight razor is concavely ground from the spine to the edge. This design combines great flexibility with high torsional stiffness in longitudinal form. The blade dynamics provide a gentle shave accompanied by a very characteristic sound caused by the razor vibrating when cutting hair.

BLADE DESCRIPTION

The round point is the classic shape of a straight razor and suits most shaving situations. This blade style has been very popular for centuries because the belly shape can be used very safely around the ears, nose, and dimples. In case of an accident, the round point also protects you from injuries.

BLADE WIDTH

A wide Blade is especially suitable for men with heavy beard growth or thicker Hairs. A 6/8 inch straight razor glides unerringly even through the densest Facial hair. The experienced barber appreciates the high own weight of the Blade and the resulting smooth running behavior. Especially on smooth You achieve an unmatched thorough and comfortable shave on facial areas this way Shaving.


APPLICATION

Your shave begins by stropping the razor on a strop. After generously applying shaving foam or shaving oil to your face, hold the razor so the open tang points away from you. With your free hand, stretch your facial skin to form as straight a surface as possible. Place the razor at about a 30° angle and gently scrape over your beard. First with the grain, then across, and finally against the grain.

CARE

Most straight razors are made from carbon steel. To avoid staining, rinse your razor with warm water after shaving. Then pat it dry with a cloth without touching the blade and store it open in a dry place. There should be at least 48 hours between uses so the stressed cutting edge can realign itself. If you won't use your razor for a longer time, coat it with acid-free care oil. More information can be found here.


DOVO cutting tools, scissors, manicure & wet shaving
Success story from the blade city Solingen

"Masterpieces in Steel", this is what DOVO cutting tools, scissors, razors, and manicure items are called by many users around the world. Perfection, quality, and craftsmanship Made in Germany and Made in Solingen. 

Good scissors, manicure and pedicure instruments, nail care sets, or wet shavers such as straight razors and safety razors as well as the accessories are basically specialized tools. The decisive factor for a good tool is always function and quality. And especially for tools used on the body and in body care, as is the case with hair scissors, nail scissors, cuticle scissors, nail nippers, or wet shaving items, the best quality and precise manufacturing are particularly important. With simple "disposable items" that look expensive but are usually manufactured very inaccurately and are of inferior material quality, frustration during use and the risk of injury increase. With a DOVO or MERKUR item, you buy high-quality, detailed cutting instruments crafted with great artisanal skill.  

DOVO, the globally renowned brand manufacturer known for its high-class cutting products, is based in the Blade City of Solingen. The name "Solingen" has made cutting products from Germany known worldwide as quality products. To protect the good reputation of Solingen cutting products from misuse, the government passed a law in 1938 to protect the name Solingen, which in its regulation has since been equated with EU directives. The use of the name Solingen requires strict standards regarding the spatial connection to the city, both in the production of the blank and in the manufacturing. In 2006, DOVO celebrated its 100th anniversary in Solingen. The company, together with its second brand MERKUR, belongs to the Solingen companies with the best reputation.

Straight razors were the foundation of manufacturing in the founding year 1906. The knowledge and skill of making these extremely sharp knives have been passed down through generations. After electric shavers became increasingly widespread, the production of high-quality hair scissors and thinning scissors was added as a second pillar. Quickly, DOVO hair scissors as well as household scissors, tailor's scissors, and sewing scissors also became quality products. Nail care instruments such as nail scissors, cuticle scissors, or nail nippers complemented the range. Today, straight razors or wet shavers have come back into the focus of consumers. The thorough wet shave is very popular with many men because it means a completely different quality of shaving. The perfect shaving brushes for this, of course with a badger hair knot, are also offered by DOVO.
