DOVO Knowledge Base

Are DOVO straight razors made in Germany?

Yes. By strict German law, the "Solingen" name is reserved only for products manufactured entirely within the city limits. DOVO meets every rigorous standard for steel tempering and artisanal grinding required for this prestigious mark.

What is the difference between DOVO and Merkur?

Merkur is a subsidiary brand owned by DOVO. The DOVO name is reserved for their handcrafted straight razors and leather strops, while Merkur is the global leader in double-edge (DE) safety razors.

Do DOVO razors come shave-ready?

Every DOVO razor arrives with a sharpened "factory edge." While many users find this sufficient, true enthusiasts often have their razors professionally honed before the first shave for maximum comfort.

Look Sharp. Do Good.
