Nice and eligant. I like the combination of the brass, ss and nickle pins. Was the dubl duck insignia inlayed or just glued on?

Thanks Ray,
the insignia is put in between coats of CA. I do not know how to inlay unfortunately.
One thing that really surprised me is that when holding the razor closed it feels very solid and fills the hand nicely, but it is not heavy.

All I'm gonna say is that someone had better want this more than me, because I NEED to stop with the 'Bay purchases. :wink:
