I got mine for $100 and it is a good one. The thing is that these things have taken on legendary status when they are really no better than many other Solingen made razors. TBH I would rather have a Puma or a Bartmann with jimps and a 6/8 blade than a duck with no jimps and the skinny tangs. They hone up quick and they shave great but so do a lot of them.
