    WOW! I am pleasantly surprised. I would never have dreamed it to be anything special.

    Exactly what is this model called guys? Once again, please excuse the ignorance.

    Tolly check out this razor club thread here for Dubl Ducks. They are one of the most highly regarded of the Solingen razors for their honing and shaving qualities.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    I will check it out. I must say, I am super excited about this thing. I have a new Hart in O-1 steel coming, but you guys have me more excited about this old razor than the nre one!

    Something interesting about this thing...When I got it home i checked it out and it was only so so sharp. I made about 15 passes per side on my strop bat with a very light smear of Hand American's .5 micron green chromium oxide, and then made 15 more passes per on another strop bat with Hand American's .25 micron Diamond Spray, and Presto the thing was shaving. Talk about surprised!

    I guess I need to have a DD specialist check it out and super tune it for me.

    Thanks again for all the great info!

    What a super estate sale find! As noted above, a rare find and a steal at that price. If it's shaving to your expectations there is no need to 'get a tune up'. Clean it up w/ soap and water with an old tooth brush and you will be just fine.

    Aren't local finds just GREAT!!

    That is the Dubl Duck Stainless. Dubl Duck is akin to the maker, though they are not actually the makers. More like the brand I guess. Stainless is the model.
