Has anyone had experience with this Razor? Is it the most aggressive razor available? I don't see many reviews. I'll admit I'm not a PAA fan..their soaps are meh and nothing really excites me about this business. I'm willing to be corrected!

Well if you are already convinced that PAA soaps suck, you are not a fan of PAA, and you don't like their business then I'll save you the trouble..................the razor sucks too don't buy it lol.

I'm sure that will be your take no matter what anybody says about the razor.

Not a lot has been written on that razor, at least on this forum.

I did see this post by an experienced member:
https://damnfineshave.com/thread-paa-sta...#pid107714

And then a more recent one from another:

Not a lot to go on, I know, but perhaps you could send these fellows a private message and ask about their thoughts and experiences with the DOC Evolution.

I have a PAA DOC Evo in stainless, and rank it in my top two DE razors, second only to the Charcoal Goods Level 3 open comb. Rounding out my top four are the R41 2011 and the Ikon Tech. The PAA is a beautiful, aggressive tool that gives me tremendously close and long-lasting shaves. No complaints whatsoever.

P.S. Let me amplify. I only use DE razors that are generally defined as "aggressive." I've got a bunch of razors I never use, including all of my vintage Gillette DEs (Slim at 9, Red Tip, Old Type thin and thick caps, New long- and short-combs, etc.), only because I can't figure out how to get a close shave. I use most of my modern DEs (except my 34C), because they were all purchased based on their aggressive reputations. I include in this list the FaTip piccolo, ATT H2, R41 2013, and Wolfman open comb .74mm blade gap. The one aggressive vintage DE I own is the Le Coq cage comb, which is essentially a naked blade on a stick (but strangely pleasant). Just to give you perspective on my final four.

If I can compare to the ikon tech then it's aggressive.

Hey Barry,
Sorry to hear you don't care for my soaps, but if you enjoy an aggressive shave you just may like the DOC Evolution. I'm just a PM away if you have more specific questions~ Smile I also offer a full 30 day money back guarantee if the razors not for you. Take Care!

Bringing this back from the dead. After months of living deep in a drawer, my PAA DOC Evo in stainless came with me as my travel razor this week. I don’t have a razor that gives me a closer shave, although a few are its equal. I can’t find it on the PAA site anymore. Has it been discontinued?

This is an amazing and beautiful tool.

Not sure, but I feel like it was only available for a short time after its release, and hasn’t made a reappearance.
