Dubl Duck - Satinedge Goldedge - what's it all mean?
Just picked up a Perl Duck Goldedge for what I think was a pretty good price. But when I was looking into Dubl Ducks, I saw that there are multiple edges, etc. can you guys help me understand what I just got?

No idea what you are talking about. A photo might help us to see what you mean.

I'll get a pic out as soon as I receive it. In the meantime, the database says that Satinedge id full-hollow ground, whereas Goldedge is half hollow. Originally Posted by BobH

OK, you meant grinds not edges. See here for an explanation of grinds The straight razor - Straight Razor Place Library .

There are SO MANY models of Dubl Ducks. They are ALL good! Goldedge seem to be the most popular.
Check out Those Daffy Ducks thread on here for all the info you could want.

Oh yeah.
Be on the lookout for cell rot.
Just keep an eye out for it. These scales are kinda known for it.

It is where celluloid (which the scales are made from on these razors) off gases, which in turn causes the blade to corrode.
Celluloid was a common scale material once.Chevhead likes this.Bread and water can so easily become tea and toast

Not the best pictures, but I can help with two grinds:
The top is a satin wedge (near wedge) and the bottom is a satin edge (hollow grind)
Here is a picture of the grinds:
They are both great shavers, nice find!
