    Default What' the difference between Double Duck's

    From what I've read, Double Duck razors are worth pursuing so I'm curious...
    What' the difference?? They all have different names - Satinedge, Wonderedge, Goldenedge etc.
    Does this just refer to the aesthetics or are there different grades of quality in the razors themselves? Kinda makes me think of the analogy : Chevy = BelAir - Impala - Caprice.

    To be honest with you I'm not sure lol. I just got one and honed it. Shaves like a dream though. I got the Dubl Duck Special No. 1. I'm looking for more info on them right now. I hope we both can get some answers I would love to know more about these wonderful razors!

    As far as I know the only one that was 'different', other than in 'gingerbread' was the Wonderedge. It was tempered differently to achieve a harder steel IIRC. I can't recall whether it was a nitrogen or lead bath, or what. Anyway, I don't even know that it is true, but that was the word on the street. The only one I ever had was more difficult to hone that other ducks I've had.

    Other than that it is the different scales, some blades etched, some not. Bang for the buck I think the dubl duck Special No 1
    is as good as any Goldedge, or Wonderedge for that matter. Just IMHO.
    rolodave and RezDog like this.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Thanks for the info! I think I'm going vintage from now on after that shave lol. I just can't get over how well it does. I did try a different way of honing this one. Not sure if that's what made the difference or not. It was a very smooth shave through 2 days of very coarse beard. I can't wait till tomorrow to shave again lol.
