DOVO BARBAROSSA – 5/8" straight razor
The DOVO Barbarossa was developed especially for barbers and bearded men. Its shortened 5/8" blade is particularly agile and precise to guide – ideal for contours with millimetre precision, moustaches and sideburns. The round head with pointed spine allows precise work even in tight areas. As a visual highlight, the blade bears a fine engraving of the legendary bearded Emperor Barbarossa.
