Also, it appears that Stamps222 has run out of these, at least for the moment. Glad I bought 3 while I could! (I'm sure the gulag will be churning out more...)

I think there's a guy selling them on ebay for $9.95 each.

Hold on now!
Check out the official Double Arrow website! Kick-ass soundtrack!!! Not to mention a pic of a guy shooting double arrows!
Apparently mine are model #74...
They sell them in lots of 100. Must come cheap at that quantity!

I just shaved with mine.. Pretty good shave (well actually I started with my Dovo Special and did my second pass and touch up with the DA) I'm actually growing a goatee right now. Wasn't easy to shape it with such a large blade but I think I did okay.

I think I would actually use it more if the scales weren't so bad. I had to put some electric tape on mine hehe. Looks pretty ghetto.

Mine honed up nicely and I finally got round to shaving with one yesterday. Started well, seemed very sharp at first. Got tricky around the chin ATG, but that may be because I'm not used to using a singing razor, or maybe it's not suited to coarse hair.
Don't know if these are classed as true singing razors, but they do make a delightful pinging sound when they cut through individual hairs on your arm. If Gilette made their multi-blade cartridges from similar blades it would be like operating a music box as you shave.

One area where I feel the DA far outshines the Wapi is blade grind. Here's a shot of the DA laying on a precision granite plate. No starnge warping, etc.

Nice! What kind of scales are you going to use ? I wish I had more skills so that I could make my own scales for this thing.

No Wapi warpage? DA, where you have you been all my life? I see a DA or three in my future!
Guys, even if the DA scales are crap, how could they be worse then the clunkers on the Wapi?
