I recently came across aluminum and plastic low d whistles by an ebay seller "Dudukoid" from the Russian Federation. The whistles look well made, and are very inexpensive. I was wondering if anyone was familiar with or had any experience with these whistles?

Interesting, they look a bit like an MK clone.
I wonder about the comfort of the mouthpiece due to the block not coming all the way back.
