This "Blackstar" model's natural pakkawood handle is permanently sealed against moisture. Due to the organic material used, no two handles are identical. Well balanced to the blade, the handle offers exceptional hand control and a comfortable shave.
The blade begins as a forged high-carbon steel blank that is then tempered for hardness. Next a master craftsman shapes and grinds it into a 5/8 inch wide, full-hollow ground blade. In the finishing process, file jimps are added to the upper and lower sides of the shank. Shank is then brand-stamped on the front and the back. Razor is then given a high-gloss black powder coating on entire spine, shank and tang, a two color 24k gold decorative etching is applied to blade and the razor is finally sharpened to perfection and polished.
The many generations of experience that went into the making of this razor are evident when you first hold it in your hand. It will provide the finest shave possible for many generations to come.
ATTENTION: Please note that the professional honing Classic Shaving offers on our selection of Dovo razors is done by our own in-house, affiliate craftsmen to our standards. It is Dovo’s policy that sharpening done by ANYONE (including you, the buyer) outside of their own factory craftsmen renders their 2-year warranty null and void. By purchasing a Dovo razor that is professionally-sharpened by ClassicShaving, you are acknowledging Dovo’s policy on its warranty status.
