    Talking first dubl duck shave

    well i just got done shaving with my new duck (pics in razor forum) and i loved it the pin was real tight and the blade was much heavier than my 6/8 dovo bismarck and a lot longer after i got the first couple of nicks out of the way it was a great shave the razor was never opened until last weekend so it has the original factory edge all i did was strop it about 25 times on linen and 50 on the leather overall i was very impressed with the duck its never going to leave my collection

    Good find on scoring a brand spankin' new duck. I have an older one but it shaves very smoothly. If you come across other new ducks post it here I am certain others would be very interested, especialy me.

    Congratulations!

    I had to check out the razor section to see what your razor looks like. BEAUTY!! I'm sure you're going to hold on to that one! But if you ever find that the love is gone, I'd be more than happy to take it off your hands for you....
