Great little razor

The Dovo Barbarossa with olive wood scales is carbon steel, not stainless as advertised, but I knew that before I bought it. It is a great little razor that does not take long at all to get comfortable with. The factory edge is very good, no need to further hone the razor, I just stropped it and shaved with excellent results. It is a small and relatively light razor, the scales are good looking and have the right friction upon deploying the blade. Just keep an eye on the point if you are used to a round one, it can bite you!

The small but mighty beard knife.

First off this little razor was designed to be used by men with beards, hence why the blade is about an inch shorter than it's common DOVO brothers. It's absolutely perfect for carving your beard line, and even cleaning up the area between your ear and sideburns. It's still long enough that shaving your neck doesn't take much more effort or time than a standard 3" razor. The Spanish point is useful in adjusting tiny areas around your beard. Like most DOVO's they come sharp, but need a serious stropping, but once you give it a good 50 laps on a strop, hairs just pop off when this little knife even looks in their direction. If you have a beard and are into straight razors, you will love this. If you don't have a beard you will probably love this too.

DOVO Barberossa

I could not agree more with the others who have submitted a review of this great little razor. It does a great job whatever the task. Money well spent.
