Thread: Dubl-Duck Special No.1 Question

I just received My Ebay win.

I have a question as far as the point. It's a straight and in perfect condition but the end of the blade at the point is not finished /polished. It looks like it may have been a round point that was cut down to a straight.

Did Dubl Duck finish their razors or leave the ends not polished.

It looks great, just curious to know.

i dont know much about ducks but is there room enough between the end of the blade and the wedge to allow a round point?
if there is it probably has ben ground down
assuming you got it with original scales

Pictures may be helpful.

I haven't seen them all but any dd Special # 1 I've ever seen or owned has been a square point. How long is the cutting edge from heel to point ?

The same. I have seen only with a square point.

i've only seen square points too.
and all the ones with the factory finish have had it good and uniform, although pits, or stray bluing don't seem too uncomon.
