    Default Dubl DuckWonderedge thoughts

    Hey everyone,

    I have found this Dubl Duck Wonderedge on ebay in incredible nick and was wondering if it would be a worthy thing to follow up. From what I understand from going through the forums, is that they are actually pretty average razors that, for an unknown reason, have a high demand which caused a high price.

    Now, should I go after this or just stick with the Flic and Gotta I will be restoring?

    EDIT; Link should work now.

    Your link is not working. If you've got the money many people are very happy with the Wonderedge razors they have. EBay prices have been on the high side for that razor in good condition. Only you can decide if it is worth the price of admission into that club!

    With 5 days left, good luck getting it at a reasonable price.

    Ach! There's a lot of white fuzzies on that photo, I bet manah's "crack" is just some lint.

    Despite the rust under the tang and tail, I vote the blade edge looks pretty good.

    Not a big fan of spike points, myself, but to each their own.

    You better have a couple or three bills ready to drop on it though if you want it, just for collector value.

    Good luck!

    EDIT: Welcome to SRP, by the way!!!!!

    Well, looks like it went for US$223. Personally it would have been a wonderful straight to have in my small collection, but $223 for a razor that still needs honing and restoration is a bit to rich for my blood at the moment.

    I will buy one of these razors though, maybe in the future when the demand isnt so high and I receive a higher pay check.
    Thanks for the replies everyone.

    Ya when you see them nice and clean you already know they will fetch top $$. Lucky for me I don't like em new and shiny so I get em at better prices

    I'm waiting on a Goldedge at the moment needs a bit of cleaning but I'm ok with that Still has some blue paint in the stamps... See what happens when it gets here lol, How did I end up with so many DD's...
