The DOVO No. 1516 SPECIAL exudes an irresistible retro charm that has made it a classic in our range for decades. The gold-decorated blade and the handle made of imitation tortoiseshell give this hand-ground razor in size 5/8 inch with a fully hollow grind a unique look.
Material: silver steel with gold decoration
This razor is made of carbon steel with the material designation 1.2210, better known as silver steel. In order to achieve a hardness of around 61 HRC, the material is heated to over 1000 degrees and then immediately quenched with a special oil. The ornaments on the blade are created by a decoration made of 24 carat gold.
Handle material: Acrylic with tortoiseshell imitation
The handle of the DOVO No. 1516 SPECIAL is made of acrylic and skillfully imitates the look of tortoiseshell. This high-quality imitation, polished to a satin finish, not only gives the razor an exquisite aesthetic.
Blade Description: Round head for safety and versatility
The classic round head of the razor is particularly safe to use around the ears, nose and dimples. The double attachment and the two-sided tang ensure precise handling and unique control while shaving.
Cut: Fully hollow for a gentle shave
The hollow grind of the DOVO No. 1516 SPECIAL gives the razor great flexibility and at the same time high torsional rigidity. The blade dynamics ensure a gentle shave, accompanied by a characteristic sound when the knife swings while cutting the hair.
Blade width 5/8 inch - the all-rounder
The blade width of 5/8 inch makes this razor a real all-rounder. The relatively heavy blade glides smoothly over the skin without exerting much pressure, while remaining maneuverable enough for precise work in technically demanding areas such as the nose, ears and chin.
