Does yours have the gun tang stamp?

Nope no gun stamp on the tang on mine.

I say that but still have that NOS DD Wonderedge tho lol

Hahaha....don't think you'll have much problem selling that DD...they're still a very hot blade to have! Did you post a pic of the Wonderedge?

Yeah sec and ill post ya one here

Here ya go

Wow!!! That is in perfect shape...it's a 7/8 spike point!! That's in awesome shape...haha....scales and blade are perfect!

That's the same one I couldn't believe I got from E-Bay for $85.00...wondered if it was a mistake at first....night and day comparing the two, here's the one I got:

I gave $100 for mine 14 years ago, box is in good shape as well, its a 5/8

Paper labels have detached from other side but still in good shape and in the box

That's in beautiful shape, thanks for posting...it's great to see old blades like that looking so new...same with that W&B, should look spectacular with some polish. I used my Goldedge again the other day, man, that blade, at least for me, requires some serious skill with the extra-hollow ground, I made it one pass, again, with no cuts or nicks, and called it even, enough! It's the only blade I own where I'm actually somewhat apprehensive to use, one tiny mistake with it for me, and it's serious pinklather time. What's your experience with the DD extra-hollows like?

edit: that's a 5/8? Looks bigger to me?

Here is the gun metal tang stamp on the one I'm restoring.

I like them a lot but not for customers, that tip is a good way to slice a face in a hurry... the extra hollows sing though so using on other people I dont mind them so much, sound doesnt play much role shaving myself but it does a bit for shaving others, I like em all honestly, whole reason for having rotations.
