Now I can’t resist anymore. I am not a big fan of gold and silver combinations ... The razor is now in the cart ... will add a few thinks and buy it!I don’t know that I’ve ever seen someone write bad things about a Bismarck. I just preferred this look over the gold. It seems like the finish will be fine long term, but it doesn’t take much honing to wear it off the spine.

The Flowing looks also stunning. Even bettee to he honest. But its 100+ USD more. Not sure its worth it? Or do you have a different opinion on the price difference?It is no different from any other Dovo 6/8 thumb notch razor. Just remember that the underlaying steel will shine through after that you've honed it. In my opinion the scales are a bite crude. I prefer the original Bismarck version, but even more I'd recommend the Flowing or the Carre versions. Then again black is cool.

The shaves are the same, but Flowing is a great looking razor, besides the notches in the scales are there to make it comfortable to hold. So if you're planning to keep the razor the extra cost will be minimal split over the years to come. In short I'd choose the Flowing, then again I have both. If I only was to keep one Dovo thumb notch razor it would definitely be the Flowing.The Flowing looks also stunning. Even bettee to he honest. But its 100+ USD more. Not sure its worth it?
