    Default Re-etched Wade and Butcher Celebrated FBUs

    I just saw this today, and Zak may have seen one some time ago. Just thought everyone should be made aware that these are floating out there.

    It's a Wade and Butcher Celebrated For Barbers Use, with what is clearly a reground blade that has had a modern etching put on it. I'm 99% sure this is a real Wade and Butcher, and 90% sure that this razor was at one point actually a legitimate Celebrated FBU, but the etching is NOT original. That is a very modern typeface, and the proportions are all wrong, as well as the fact that it does not look like the type of etching which would have been used in the period.
