I had not seen this issue in years, so it took a bit of thinking to reach a solution. 

To follow up a bit, mostly due to boredom....

The "Open With" queries a collection of "mimeapps.list" to present options.  The locations and names
of the various files are defined, for one place, here https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/XDG_MIME_Applications#mimeapps.list

The duplicates, no doubt, existed in one of those files in your directory.
