If you’re looking for an heirloom razor, this is the one. The Bismarck balances beauty with an amazing tactile sensation when in use. The 6/8” blade allows for the blade to have more momentum and therefore shave with less effort on the behalf of the user. Swedish Carbon Steel makes an amazing shaving edge that will last months at a time, while the scales are durable and resistant to moisture.
KEY INFORMATION
- All razors are guaranteed shave-ready by our staff.
- For help using your razor, we suggest you take a Straight Razor Shaving Class at one of our stores or feel free to contact us for advice.
- This razor is made from high carbon steel, capable of amazing sharpness and great edge retention but requires a little extra care. Be sure to dry your razor well after every use, and oil with Blade Oil or store in a dry place.
- All straight razors must be stropped before use to straighten burrs and polish the edge for the smoothest shave possible. Be sure to use a good quality strop and accurate technique.
- Honing/ Sharpening should be done on Japanese synthetic or natural whetstones. You can bring your blade into the Kent of Inglewood store to be honed, with the first time free on any blades purchased from us. Razor honing classes are also available at your nearest Kent of Inglewood location.
About Dovo - Dovo was founded in 1906 in Solingen, Germany, by Mr. Dorp and Mr. Voos, who split their surnames to form the company name “Dovo". In those early years, they produced only traditional straight razors like many other factories in Solingen at the time, with only 13 staff. Expanding later into scissors and grooming tools through the mid 20th century, their straight razor production went from 8000 per year to 3000 per month with a resurgence in wet shaving. In 1996 Dovo acquired Merkur to round out their offerings to include safety razors, providing discerning folk with all manner of “meisterwerke en stahl”, or “masterpieces in steel”.

Great Razor for beginners
"First go at straight razor, don’t be afraid it’s not that hard and this is a great razor to start with."
Great Razor, Would Recommend
"Great razor, the blade is nice. It's shaves very well and is very comfortable to use"
Best straight razor I’ve ever
"Best straight razor I’ve ever had. Delivers a baby smooth shave. Properly taken care of, I imagine it’ll last me a lifetime. I just recently decided to go back to shaving the old fashioned way, and with the Dovo Bismarck, I know I made the right decision."
First straight razor and very
"First straight razor and very happy."
It is a Nice razón
"It is a Nice razón they blade is very sharp and they shave is very good."
I am relatively new to
"I am relatively new to shaving with a straight razor. The edge of the blade was sharp and allowed for a close shave. Will definitely need more practice to fully transition to the straight razor."
Work of art
"This razor is truly a work of art. Looks beautiful with my other brass elements. I’m new to straight razors and got used to it very quickly …and I won’t be going back to regular razors any time soon."
Dovo Bismarck 6/8" straight razor
"Absolutely beautiful piece of art. With the dark scales and gold trim it's easy to forget that this razor is meant to be used and not just put out on display. Shaves extremely well and gives great audio feedback. Doing an edge touch up is easier than most due to the lack of any stabilizer on the blade heel. Quick shipping and item arrived perfectly packed leaving no chance for damage to occur. Will definitely be doing more shopping from the Calgary store in the future."
Good weight, easy to handle
"Good weight, easy to handle and holds a nice edge. Best shave I've ever had."
