I had a full size 6/8 Dwarf. Often wondered if it was mis stamped.

If you look at the DD advert that Martin posted, it states that the German model the scales have the gold inlay and the 3 pin design. The implication here is that the American model does NOT. (and I know all of my "american" models dont) This would explain why the american model would be cheaper, and suggests that they shipped the blades here to be scaled. Certainly a box of 100 blades would be cheaper to ship than a box of 100 complete razors. At the top of their game, they were probably moving enough razors to see big savings in doing that.

Ay - a contradiction. Originally Posted by onimaru55

The following explains - admirably IMHO - the differences between an argument, an oxymoron, a contradiction and plain abuse:
Now then, Onimaru, are you telling me that a full size dwarf is the same as a dwarf that isn't full size?
Yes you are?
No you're not.
What did you come in here for?
Regards,

I was going to offer "Looseology"
"Don't be stubborn. You are missing out."
I rest my case.
