Safety Razor DOVO PRIMO II

DOVO PRIMO II distils more than a century of Solingen shaving experience into a balanced, carefully tuned safety razor for everyday traditional wet shaving. Its straight-cut closed-comb head combines a measured blade exposure of 0.06–0.07mm with a generous 0.6–0.65mm blade gap, giving prepared stubble room to pass through while keeping the stroke controlled. The solid brass handle places reassuring weight in the hand, and its medium knurling helps maintain a secure grip without feeling abrasive. A precision die-cast zinc head and bright chrome finish bring clean geometry, corrosion protection and a polished appearance. The result is an all-round razor that welcomes a beginner but offers enough efficiency and material quality to satisfy an experienced user.

Who is it for?

For beginners and experienced users who want a balanced closed-comb safety razor for regular facial shaving. A strong choice when effective lather flow, secure grip and a substantial brass handle matter.

Who is it not for?

Not for users seeking an adjustable blade gap, a pivoting cartridge head or the more direct feel of an open-comb razor.

What does it do?

The closed comb supports a stable shaving angle, while the generous blade gap allows lather and cut stubble to rinse away rather than collect in the head. The stabilised screw keeps the three parts firmly aligned around a standard double-edge blade.

How to use?

Wash the face with warm water, apply a generous layer of lather and allow it time to soften the beard. Hold the razor at a 30–45-degree angle and guide it without pressure in short strokes, rinsing the head every few movements. Begin with the direction of hair growth and reapply lather before further passes. After shaving, rinse away lather and hair, dry the razor and check that all parts are seated firmly after changing the blade.
