From Dovo:
The 5/8-inch DOVO 100 is an excellent straight razor for beginners and people who prefer a robust and unfussy knife. In terms of sharpness, thoroughness, and handling, it is in no way inferior to its brothers. All surfaces of the razor are finely ground by hand in several stages. The upper and lower sides of the tang are ribbed, so you have a firm grip on it even with wet or foamy fingers.

Important advice to the User: The blade of your open straight razor has a very fine and vulnerable cutting edge. Touching it or cutting materials other than beard hair, or using it for other than its intended purpose will damage or destroy it. Therefore direct contact with the skin should only occur during the shaving session. Gentle stropping of the blade before shaving maintains the blade's cutting ability for several months, while too much pressure onto the strop will cause damage to the fine cutting edge.
