Nothing quite beats an expertly honed straight razor from Dovo Solingen. Hot-forged in Solingen and bearing the German government's seal to prove that even the materials used in its making were sourced locally.
Dovo straight razors are a family-owned business, founded in Solingen in the beginning of the 20th century and has been producing straight razors since a time when no one even knew what the word "disposable" meant.
And although technology may have chugged along since then at a mind-boggling pace, many of us (we certainly do!) still appreciate and rejoice in the reassuring simplicity of objects that are too simple and well-crafted to ever fail.
Straight razors embody this spirit of simplicity. And although they take some patience and skill to learn to use, once mastered they elevate the process of shaving from a task to a form of art and source of satisfaction.
And no matter how many blades you stick on a disposable razor, nothing quite beats a single, expertly honed straight edge hot-forged in Solingen and bearing the German government's seal to prove that even the materials used in its making were sourced locally.

I just got the B&M Dune-themed 'Melange' shaving soap in the mail last night (P.S. HUGE shoutout to GrownManShave.com for being super responsive and accommodating through a shipping issue due to an error of address on my part. Thank you, Laura!). I was soo excited to get to shave with this soap today as I'm a big Dune fan (the only book I've ever read twice). I was a bit hesitant as I heard it is a very "spice-heavy" soap (for obvious reasons...the spice must flow!), and that's not usually my cup of tea, but man was I wrong! The smell is amazing, definitely stronger than my other B&M soaps, the spice sent filled the bathroom, and I liked it so much that I decided after the shave to neglect my usual B&M Seville aftershave balm because I didn't want to lose that spice sent. It's been about an hour since my shave and I can still smell it on my face - it's terrific! I think I'm going to need to pull the trigger on the Melange balm as well.
If you're a Dune fan or just want to know what it would feel like to shave in the warm desert breeze on the sands of Arakis....then this soap is for you!
"I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little death that brings obliteration. I will face my fear and I will permit it to pass over me and through me."
Waited forever for the Black Friday sale. Don't WAIT! ! !
Good things come to those who wait. THIS THING is GREAT ! ! ! Feels like the closest shave I've ever had. It actually makes shaving pleasurable... and I hate shaving! GOOD LUCK with your search!!
Of course coticules are a challenge to learn to sharpen on. As one gentleman said, "They (coticules) can be humbling", with that being said this is a fine specimen and a pleasure to sharpen with.
The edge it gives to a razor leaves it with a comfortable and close shave.
