It is a 5/8 W&B with a barbers notch. Has a chip near the center of the blade but that is one reason i picked it up. I wanted to practice getting a chip out. also seems to have a slight frown.

Sadly there does not appear to be a Durham Duplex club in the Razor Club section. If there were, I would imagine their meets to be like a Monty Python thing I saw years ago about a group that dressed up as rats. A small fervent group.......you are lucky there is a Sheffield blade screwed on to your DurDu scales.
Ironic. since Sheehan-era Durham Duplex bought out Wade & Butcher.
I thought they were Urham Uplex's?? ;) That's what most sellers say!
I believe they kept manufacturing razors, and I think it was under the banner of Durham Duplex that W&B made safety razor blades, but that might've been while Adolph Kastor owned the brand.
