    That is a very nice looking razor. Only 8/8 duck I've seen.

    I own a 13/16ths Goldedge, and I'm sure I've seen a 7/8ths, but I don't recall a 8/8ths. Nice razor.

    Very nice.

    I'll take a seven day set of them.
    In an ivory box.
    With gold hinges.
    And my family crest scrimshawed onto it.

    Oh, wait. I haven't won the lottery yet.
    Oh, wait, I don't even play the lottery.

    That's a fantastic specimen! The sheer size increases the collectability. Very nice for the new owner. Thank goodness it's a round point, or I'd have struggled to contain my jealousy!

    Now that is a fine example of the restorer's craft, and on an 8/8 Dubl Duck too. I take my hat off to you Traveller.
