Vintage Straight Razor Dubl Duck Grim Reaper Nice 9 16" No Reserve | eBay

Hopefully the link works. I've got this on my watch list to see how much it goes for.

The blade is in what I consider pretty poor condition.
I do not care what it says on the tang or the scales.

Yeah I can't tell if it's shadows or hone wear near the heel. I'm not good at seeing that so I don't bid lol

That seller often has pitted razors that have been extensively buffed. I wonder why not this one. LOL. I will have to see where this goes. Hype is an interesting thing.

I was referring to all the spotting on the blade.

magnified, I am fairly certain 9though nothing is 100%) that the pitting in the center of the blade on the show side is very deep. Buffing this one out would have resulted in no blade left.
It will go for more than its worth, like many other blades, simply because people gotta have it!

I haven't seen too many in any better shape than that. I guess it is less risky to run it as is rather than try and slick it up and possibly mess it up. As it is the thing will probably bring a big return.

Did I hear my name being called?

I have to admit it makes my mouth water but I don't think I would bid much more than where it's at and I suspect it will go for more than what it's worth like magpie said. There are a few ducks I still don't have but I have resigned to finding them in the wild for cheap. I may die first :<0)

I recon I could get that blade looking pretty damn good, but I would pass simply because of the rather large crack in the scales.
