    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Looks like 11/16 on the toe and slightly smaller at the heel...

    Mine was 4/8, the blade was Voidmonsters, so was in superb condition, tidy little razor, of all the Ducks, I liked the Reaper the best, was a real fantastic razor, but all my Ducks are now flying the coop....

    Oh yeah...maybe one of my ancestors marched in the British army to try and put you rebels down, cause those Yankee blades did not like Phranky one bit, except the Reaper, think Zak put a few good words in for me with that one...they just never worked for me, although I did finally conquer that Goldedge, 5th try, finally got a 3 pass shave without blooding myself, the Wonderedge was actually a real pleasure to use, but was right on the line with me, breathe to deep and "zip"...red line on the face!

    I'll stick with my Imperialist Sheffield steel......

    I don't think I've ever seen one larger than 11/16. Maybe thebigspendur might know for sure. I've only seen maybe half a dozen in my long life, and only one up close and personal.

    Yup, when I first held mine, my initial reaction was overall how small the razor was, in length and size of blade, but you can really speed around your face with it, get's into all the right and tight places with ease, really is a stellar performer in my opinion....

    I would say that this gave me the BEST shave I have had so far.
    It really was a pleasure to use.
