Oh man thanks for bringing this up. Well I have a few Ducks (grim reaper, wonder edge, goldedge, satinedge...) but I also have a few that out-shaves all my ducks. And by a few I mean a lot. To start with all my customs.. livi, zowada, JC.. Every single one of them out-shaves my ducks. The same situation with my pumas. Also some of my TI's (the 1/4 grind le grelot), the Egyptian, the heck even the special coiffeur and some helje... I really don't get what is with the all the people bringing up the prices on the DD. One of my first razors was a pristine wonderedge that I paid through hell to get it thinking that I am getting the holly grail of razors and when I got some other razors in the $50 area that simply felt "better" I was so confused. Let me see who else dares to to speak about their DD....
