Thread: Dubl Duck and W&B find!

I am no expert, but it looks like a 6/8 with at least 15/16 cut off making it around 2 1/2 to 2 9/16 long :<0)

YEAH... YOUR NO EXPERT ON DUCKS....

I almost fell out of my chair!

You guys might be right! It was prob cut at some point! Perhaps to fix the tip?

If dropped, the toe can crack very easy.

You now a Satinedge Dwarf and can ask for 3 times as much!

I will treat this little dwarf with care!
The reason i got it was because it was a dbl duck and it was in great condition but what called my attention was the shorter blade!

If there is enough room I think I might shorten the scales to make it look right. But either way it will still be a nice shaver when you get it fixed up :<0)

Shorter scales would like nice indeed

The center pin might look a little funny and polishing up the celluloid would be a pain so think hard and go slow if you do it :<0) Of course you could always make new ones if you mess up.

All antiques stores agree that just recently there has been a crave for razors... Thats why they are pricey! I am not bias... All i look for is vintage... Restorable possibility and thats it... The brand doesnt matter ad much as the condition and if i like it... Should be fun to restore these...

Out in the hinterlands pricing is hard. If they price low, me and pickers from the big cities rape them and if they price high, they don't make sales.
I price my buying by "Sold" listings on the 'bay.
