"Personally, I love the full stainless steel look and build. Take care of it and it will retain that sheen for years without a sign of rust. Really, all it lacks is the plastic guard that makes shaving with the Dovo a nick-free experience. This one is it a bit more like a real straight razor, only without all the hassle and maintenance required of a traditional razor blade."
"Dovo is a German brand that has been making straight razors since 1906. It has expanded its grooming toolkit in the century and change since then, and this is its best evolution of the form. The Dovo silver shavette is an affordable straight razor that uses replaceable double blades. The real innovation with Dovo's shavettes is the clear plastic guard that covers the point corner of the blade."
Several shavettes and affordable straight-razor alternatives are compared. A full stainless-steel shavette provides rust resistance, snap-on blades, and long-lasting sheen but lacks a plastic guard, making it closer to a traditional straight razor and better suited to intermediate users or barbers. The Parker SRX accepts any double-edge blade and is recommended for intermediate users. The Dovo silver shavette offers replaceable double blades, a clear plastic guard over the point corner to reduce beginner nicks, and century-long brand heritage. Very inexpensive models like the Classic Samurai provide a low-risk way to try shaving with replaceable blades but carry higher nick risk and lower aesthetics.
