Named for the Mountain Lion of the Bergischer Mountain range, the Dovo Bergischer Lowe might be the most gorgeous straight razor to ever leave the factory in Solingen. The 5/8” blade is a very standard size, and good to learn on as it is easy to maneuver while not so narrow that it gets lost in the hand. With a slightly rounded point, this razor excels at detailing facial hair while the African cow horn scales vary drastically between models and makes each razor unique. Swedish Carbon Steel makes an amazing shaving edge that will last months at a time.
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”.

Excellent razor

Best Shave Ever
"I've been using a single blade safety razor for 10 years and this blade is 10 times better. Definitely takes more time but the results are amazing."
Great razor
"I recently got this razor for Christmas it’s a serious upgrade from what I had! It shaves beautifully and looks magnificent"
Gift for husband
"Blade is beautiful however the honing and sharpening done by the gal there was really bad. We are regulars here and found that for an expensive blade the person sharpening to send out should know what to do! I highly recommend shopping here but def dont go to the ladies for sharpening."
Great service, and Beautiful Razor
"Fantastic products, and great service all around. Satisfaction was guaranteed, Kasumi, Brenda and Nathan where professional and even at a distance made it their mission to insure i had the right razor. They have a great team, and highly competent. A pleasure to shave with this razor"
Beautiful Razor
"I can’t speak enough good things about this razor. From the gold to the Buffalo horn, this thing is exquisite. The Spanish point offers a layer of precision I find my enjoying much more than expected. Show it off to friends or keep it as your personal morning ritual. You will be satisfied, I guarantee it."
Better with each shave!
"I was reluctant to take the leap to straight razor shaving without the in-store "so you'd like to try your hand at straight razor shaving" classes but the March razor sale made it irresistible. I'm a good dozen shaves in and have had a couple 10 out of 10's, several 9.5s, a couple 9's and one 8/10. But never any worse than that 8/10 - much to my surprise. What's more, the process of a straight razor shave forces me to relax and slow down - even if it's just for the shave. I'm enjoying a little bit of "me" time with every shave. Biggest bonus for me? Being able to hack through several days' growth without choking up the safety razor is fantastic!"
Q&A
- Just wondering what your handles look like in the buffalo horn as I understand they range from blonde to grey to black.
- Hey there! They're usually a little more on the blonde side than black. The one we have pictured on the website is very bright, it looks like the last one we have in stock has just a little bit of a darker hue - I can't attach photos here, but if you email us at edmonton@kentofinglewood.com we should be able to get you an exact photo!
