DOVOBismarck Shave Ready Straight Razor Pearl Acrylic 6/8'' Carbon Steel

Q: This razor being 6/8 and half hollow would in theory last a lot longer than a normal 5/8 full hollow right?

In theory....yes. But only in theory. In reality how much it is used determines the longevity of a straight razor. I see many users go back to resharpen their razors over and over again....in many cases it is unnecessary to do so, the last time I resharpen my SRs like 2-3 years ago, I don't even remember exactly how long ago. I use a barber's hone for touch-ups and that takes care of the edge of my SR. No wonder my SRs look and feel like brand new razors.....oh, btw I do have 9 razors in the rotation, so I never use a razor twice, no matter how confy the shave is. I hope this helps.

Q: If i order the bismarck through amazon, will it or can i get it hone ready?

It's funny you ask that question... I just spent a whole day with Jens on September 14th, 2017 (he is managing director for Dovo / Merkur is soligen, Germany.). One of the topics we spoke about is this so called myth that Dovo straight razors are not shave ready. Jens assured me all Dovo straight razors when they leave their factory are 100% shave ready. I know there are several shaving blogs debating this very same topic. Such as the guru himself Lee Abrams and others. Well just so you know Dovo actually changed their policy (a few years back) to void their warranty in USA if one of these such gurus so called " professionally honed their razors. Bottom line is this ...Dovo razors are 100% shave ready out of the box! This is not my professionally opinion, but the word from the managing director Thanks Seller FGP

Q: What type of steel is this exactly? And how good is the edge retention?

It is made of carbon steel. 1.2210 is the European designation. Edge retention depends on how coarse your beard is. Give the blade at least 24 to 48 hours after you shave so the foil edge realigns and then strop it. I have a very coarse beard and I can get away with 4 or 5 months before I have to dress the edge again on a stone.

Q: How can I order item to Turkey ?
