Thread: Those dubious ducks!

This is a thread for posting pictures of your favorite DD's that aren't a DD!

Here we have a Beau Brummel No.#18 5/8's square point! Beautiful razor!

Forgive my poking my nose in but I thought BB's and DD's were both made by Bresduck?

Yes, you are correct!
So, my BB is my favorite DD that is not a DD!

Understand?

Actually all the DD companies be it Bresnick or bresduck or pearlduck were barber suppy houses and they didn't manufacture a darn thing. All of their razors were made by other people. Beau brummel was originally marketed by them as well as others. Later on pearlduck got to be exclusive distributer of BBs and those BBs have the address of the company as jamaica N.Y which is where pearlduck was located. You can tell the later BB's because the early ones say Beau Brummel Werk on the tang while the later ones just say Beau Brummel razors.

Two Beau Brummel Werk's Razors:::: Both are stamped #35 but have slightly different logos....Both have the classic hammered tangs
1. A 11/16 Spike with black and gray scales
2. A 5/8 Spike with black and yellow scales

Very nice !!!






RPR.

this s a franken- razor the last owner poorly put a set of adoration ax scales on this hammered tang twin duck... it still shaves like a dream though.

Sneaky duck indeed, Jim

come on gentlemen step right up, step right up. A troubling situation has arrived in the razor club and that is the use of thumbnail pictures. I know that some of you old timers still remember when the razor clubs were a thing of beauty! with large glossy pictures of razors and we viewed until our hearts content. but those days are through it would seem. I beseech all the members of the razor clubs to take the poll in the general section and vote to restore large pictures to our beloved razor clubs. It is up to us gent and together we can restore these clubs to there former glory!!!!!!
