Thread: Identify this Duck and Manning Razors Please

I just picked up two razors from ebay for the scales, (plan to rescale some wapis) don't really plan to try and shave with these

They look so similar and yet I can't find another dubl duck in the forums with the same scales. Are these scales original to the duck? was the J.J. Manning razor made by Bresduck or what ever the same company was at the time? Maybe they were dropped by the same person?

Razor #1
Bresduck dubl duck solingen-germany
dubl duck Satinedge
Special WFE

Razor #2
J.J. Manning Providence, R.I. M.I.Germany
Our Best
Special JJM



Just to interesting not to ask. Pics are not so great and do not really show the slight differences in the tangs. The duck has a squared off tang, while the jj manning is rounded.

what do ya'll think?

The SatinEdge Blade was a DD everything else there is not...

word,
thanks, seemed like too much of a coincidence.
so these scales are from somewhere else? any idea? were they common for rescaling razors?

The SatinEdge's scales are from an FW Engels razor. Though the other scales are similar, I don't know what those initials stand for.

Looks to be the Initials of the blade maker Ron that was my best guess anyway...

Wait, I just noticed and had a thought. The JJM just may stand for JJ Manning!

Yup. That's a pretty good guess!
