I won these 2 razors last night. I cant wait to start my first rehab. I have a question about one I think it might be a Special #1 that was made for a barber supply company.
BARBER'S SPECIAL & ONTARIO Straight Razor Cut Throat - eBay (item 160633572128 end time Aug-13-11 17:18:28 PDT)
Even if its not I am still excited. If it is then I practically stole it.
Noticed that the link does not work. I did not know that. I will have to post pics when I get them.

And so the RAD begins. I also have wanted a 6/8 or larger as well. The Ontario is a 6/8 but has a chip in the edge. Time to break out the Nani 220. I will have to post before and after pic's.
Ok this is what I got today. I am pretty sure its a Dubl Duck. What do you guys think?Attachment 76086Attachment 76087
You can see a couple spots of rust, but I think its very salvagable.

Wish I knew enough to tell ya. Let us know how it turns out. I'm excited fir ya, bud :)
Best of Luck with it.
I am almost positive it is, but looking thru wiki and the Dubl Duck club I couldnt find one marked like this. Either way its still pretty exciting.
Yep, it's a DD number one. Good score.
DD's are awesome shavers as well, my two are amongst my very best! :)
So excited to have someone more experienced confirm it. Now to figure out who to restore it for me.
There are a lot of people on here who do retoration, I'm sure they'd be happy to do it.
Not me though :P
Restoration* I hate the ipad keyboard
Oh yeah I have been looking and I really like all their work.
Dubl Ducks clean up nicely! I did this one. Started with the first picture and ended with the last three. :)Quote:

I won another razor that needs less blade work but more hone work (it has a huge chip) and its a 6/8 so there is more metal to work with.
Well after the sticker shock of a pro resto, I have decided to clean it up myself (really just cant afford it). I will just make it a plain shaver.
