I just picked up an old wooden straight razor box at a flea market.
It's missing the front latch. Does anyone have one of these and could post a pic so I can look for something similar?

There was a similar one on the bay not that long ago....I'll see if I can find the sold post there. I think the bay one was a dubl duck case
Thanks.
If it is a dubl duck, maybe it has a logo on the latch and I'll try and reproduce it.
I have a dubl duck (my cousin got it for me from his barber), so now I'm very interested in getting the box close to original.
thanks again,

here is one but it wasn't THE one i was thinking of but i will keep looking
Rare Antique Straight Razor Storage Box w 4 Razors Wood w Leather Cover c1890s | eBay
and
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...#ht_500wt_1119
The second link is exactly it!
The insert for the back 3 razors is pulled up in the ebay picture. The nails in the latch match the holes in mine identically.
I'll put a temporary latch on mine until I can find one like that (I'll put a the picture on my phone for reference).
Many many thanks. I'm quite happy now.
regards,
ken
