Could someone please date my Dubl Duck? Mark: Made in Germany, 2 duck, Bresnick, New York. Other side: Side profile of a China man, Gold Mandarin Solingen. Thoughts on the handle?

Goedecke & Co. GmbH. Solingen-Merscheid: Kölner Strasse 144 in 1908, Beethovenstrasse 258-60 in 1939. 'Mandarin' (1898) Looking at their other brands, I'd place it before WW2, maybe even WW1.

Definitely not original. Sorry, but the scales look like a cheap aftermarket costume job. On the up side, the original Dubl Duck scales are every collector's nightmare, because they're made from celluloid, and therefore prone to discolouration (if anyone loves that beige, well, it used to be bright white), warping, and, of course, gassing.

So I've been on the forum dos a while an thought that I'd start showing my razors in their designated clubs so here goes.

1st special No1 Nos
2nd special No1 this one was NOS except for a chip it the tip so I shortened it 1/16"
3rd Bresnick Puma
4th Bresnick red head NOS
5th 58 French
6th satinbaby near NOS cleaned up straitened scales went to put back together an found out they had shrunk.

Picked up a Special No 1 and a Dwarf last weekend at the flea market, decent price for some dirty, slightly frowning, Bresduck period blades. I've been looking for some user grade ducks that weren't priced like they were NOS Wonderedges for awhile now and I finally have them!

Forgot about this one!

Daffy Duck. A 13/16 Satinedge;

I want a duck.

Just saying.

Those are definately original scales. They have a sort of translucent depth which photos don't show. Nice grab. If you look back in the thread I have 2 posted and I think Spedur has 1 also :<0)
