Dovo Apex Straight Razor 5/8" Ebony Handle Square Point
- Carbon steel
- Full hollow-ground
- Black ebony wood handle
- 5/8" blade
Dovo, a family-owned business, was founded in Solingen at 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.
Technology may have chugged along since then at a mind-boggling pace. This straight razor, though, hot-forged in Solingen and bearing the German government's seal to prove that even the materials used in its making were sourced locally, is timeless.
This blade will elevate the process of shaving from a task to a form of art and a source of satisfaction.
Made in Germany

Razor itself is visually beautiful. However the lower point is chipped.
Beautiful razor. I look forward to my first shave with it!
I was surprised when I received this razor and shaved with it the first time, as it needed honing. I have several Dovo razors and this is the first one that wasn't ready to go out of the box. So I honed it and then tried it again several days later and it is now my favorite razor. I like everything about it, especially the extra weight it has. It is also one of those blades that sings as it is being used. Similar to a very sharp plane going over hard maple or white oak. All around great razor.
I am new to straight razor shaving. The barber I went to used a barberette. I purchased a naked armor and then the Dovo barbarossa. The Dovo in my opinion is much easier to use probably due to it's smaller size and grind. Definitely recommend if you're just doing detailing after a haircut.
Works really well!
The set is really perfect for traveling. When traveling, I don’t need an entire manicure set, and I already have several pairs of spare clippers. But a file and scissors are necessities. This set is small but the file is very effective and efficient and the scissors work well. The first set I received had some rust spots. GMS kindly replaced the item with a new set which was perfect.
Amazing razor.
I bought a Thiers Issard and was very disappointed in the blade. Even after sharpening and honing to 12000 it did not cut great, I ordered this razor and man, what a difference! This passed the hair test form the factory (before stropping) and was a pleasure. U did a quick hone at 12000 and it is like butter with a hot knife now through the hair test. THids was far less than the other one a far greater quality out of the box.
They have slots to hold blade! Buy black or red or clear instead
This is a great nail clipper. Cuts through nails with ease.
