    Default DUBL DUCK LIFETIME STRAIGHT RAZOR

    Has anyone seen this and is it worth that much?

    The Lifetime, aka "Grim Reaper", was later renamed to "Wonderedge". It's considerably rarer than the Wonderedge. So yeah, it's probably worth that much - probably quite a bit more, actually. We'll find out when the auction ends...

    The Wonderedge surprises me as these do turn up weekly on eBay. Not always this nice and I suppose mint is likely worth double to a collector than an average one. The Grim Reaper though is pretty rare. I remember only 2 other on eBay in the past few years. It will be a long time till another turns up I bet.

    The grim reaper ain't no wonderedge. They were both the top of the line models but the grim reaper is a standard solingen razor but with fancy scales while the wonderedge is a different animal as far as blade material and treatment goes. I have both. Is it worth the price? If your a collector and need it for your collection you pay what you have to, to get it. If you just want a good shaver no its not.

    Shavability aside I am surprised it did not go for more considering the condition. lately a few Wonderedges brought this much or near to it. For a collector filling out a set prices go high. Add a near mint condition and it gets crazy.

    I picked up a few DD razors from members here, Wonderedge, Gold Edge, etc.... all shave nicely, top of the line on down. They range from well used to near mint.
