Dovo - The Traveller (Limited Edition)
The Traveller is a rare tribute to craftsmanship and philosophy. With only 66 pieces available, each razor is hand-engraved with a skull motif and a profound passage from Sri Chinmoy’s "Death is not the End", a reminder that life is a journey guided by spirit and endurance.
“Death is the road.
Life is the traveller.
The Soul is the Guide.”
Design Details: The blade features a straight point and a distinctive roof-shaped spine for controlled precision. The full hollow grind creates a fine concave profile that flexes delicately across the skin, delivering a close shave with satisfying acoustic feedback. A thumb notch on the tang ensures secure, ergonomic handling essential for focused work around contours and tight angles.
Forged from high-carbon 1.2210 steel and finished in gold plating, the 8/8” blade glides through coarse or thick beards with ease. Its substantial weight and balance make it ideal for experienced users and barbers who value power and finesse in every stroke.
Handle Material: Rich smoked oak completes the aesthetic. Naturally dark and textural, it evokes the character of aged wood shaped by time. Its moisture resistance and tactile strength make it a perfect match for the blade’s permanence and symbolism.
How to Use:
- Strop before each shave on a leather strop to align the edge.
- Apply a quality shaving soap or oil to soften the skin and beard.
- Hold the razor at a 30° angle and shave with the grain, followed by against-the-grain passes for a clean finish.
Care Instructions:
After shaving, rinse with warm water and dry thoroughly with a cloth (avoid wiping the edge). Leave the razor open to air dry completely. Wait at least 48 hours between uses to allow the edge to settle. For long-term storage, apply acid-free oil to prevent corrosion.
