The Dovo Shavette Disposable Blade Straight Razor is a versatile and affordable straight razor that is ideal for travelling and as an introductory razor for newcomers to straight, cut throat razor shaving. Experienced straight razor users will also appreciate the close shave, ease of use and the sheer delight of straight shaving without the need for hones and strops. As the Dovo Shavette uses disposable stainless steel double edge (DE) razor blades or the longer one-piece Dovo blades, this eliminates the need to buy a hone, strop and other accessories which are associated with straight razors, reducing the cost of starting straight razor shaving considerably. Using the compact Shavette by Dovo allows you to get used to the technique required for a comfortable straight razor shave. In addition, the blade holder acts as a guard that prevents the leading corner of the blade from cutting you.
