Thread: Those Daffy Ducks

Here's two I don't see in the group. I've had them for about a month and am still working on my picture ttaking techniques. Sorry about the quality. The first is a Bresnick 'Winova'. The second is a 'Twin duck'. Note on the Twin Duck that there is a pin (and spacer) in plaCe of the wedge. Hope these fit in this grpou.

I have a feeling both those razors were rescaled. I've never seen a bresnick with those logos on the scales so that's probably a 100% probability its a rescale. Hard to tell for sure about the other. However I still have not seen a bresnick Blue whatever that is.

I love me some ducks. I have gaggle, but none so pretty as the Lifetime.

Only razor I've ever seen with a Bell and Arrow logo like that is a C-Mon Wedgeway

I have considered that the 'Blue Jinx' and 'Twin duck' may have been re-scaled and if so, were done well. The Blue Jinx I am not sure it was though. I have a picture or it (not taken by me) where the scales do look blue. Due to the quality of the picture I did not post it here. The next time I find some spare time to play with my camera and light box I will see if I can duplicate the Blue appearance on the scales. If I can and based on the name 'Blue Jinx' on the shank I will have to consider the scales original. If I can't duplicate the blue appearance all I will be able to deduce is that the scales may have been replaced.

Regardless of whether the scales are original or re-scaled, they are a part of these particular razor's history and I do like the uniqueness or the razor as they are.

Have any of you seen any other Bresnick 'Blue Jinx" str8s? I'm curoius to learn anything this razor that I can. Your knowlage, thought and/or comments will be appreciated.

It's hard to tell from your photos, but from what I can see it doesn't look like a factory pin job to me on that Blue Jinx razor. I agree with you that the scales and blade compliment each other very well regardless.

How does it shave?

I shaved with it last night for the second time since I picked it up. It's a very smooth shaver.

The scales on the Blue Jinx certainly do remind me of a Peter J. Michels. But, I also recall seeing a couple of Engels with those scales. This could all just be my imagination of course.

This is a Seven Day Case that I got from eBay to put Seven Dubl Duck's in.
