Nice !! keep an eye on that Satinedge. The scales are awful dark. Think cool and dry for all of them.
And Chev that wedge looks suspicious too ! I know you keep an eye on yours. If not you know I will always look at it everyday if you want me to hold it for you :<0)
Attachment 262954Attachment 262955Attachment 262956Attachment 262957I picked this Satinedge up off of eBay recently. I haven't come across many with the gold tang stamps. Anyone have any info on that?
Hard to say without holding it but it could be all original or a darn nice restore. It looks to me like it has seen some buff. The thing about Duck tangs is the finish is the first thing to go. The Satinedge had a satin finish and was somewhat more durable than say the Goldedge, Wonderedge or Special #1. The hand forged should last forever for obvious reasons. As for color, gold was typical on Satins and some of the black finished tangs as I recall. And color is one of the easiest things to put back on a tang.
The original Satin finish is a streaked sand paper kind of look that is very fine and looks purposeful. The streaking goes from toe to heel in direction. It covered the same areas that all the other tang finishes did and although restores look great some miss the mark on what lines these finishes actually followed. Someday I will post detail shots of these lines. Just waiting to win the lotto so I can devote more time to it :<0)
Thanks so much for the info! I love the ducks and how intricate the design details were (like the different tang finishes) not the mention the amazing shavers they are. Im glad there's a group where I can espouse my love for all things duckie!
To add to the party a bit here is the NOS Goldedge I have

It's not in great shape but it's cheap, and better it go to someone here who likes DD's than end up in the trash.
I know I'm not screwing up somebody else's bid here because it's a Buy It Now at $15!
