Buwahahahaha.

WADE/BUTCHER Antique Folding Straight Razor Box-Damaged

Bin: $24.50
Shipping: $9.70

[oh, oh, my sides hurt... there's more! ]

*CONDITION: This box is beaten up with lots of wear.
*FEATURES: The original box is missing.
*Needs to be with someone who can clean up this box and find the original razor that came with it.

hahaha, Leighton? Leighton? paging Leighton. I think you're the man for the job

The W&B was a damn microtome!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I guess its going back on the bay to some collector.

What kind of W&B are you looking for? How about a 7/8 wedge? Will that do?
Look for a PM.

I have been trying to get a decent W&B for a while too. I don't even care too much about the condition, because I would restore it. I always get outsniped on the 7/8 - 8/8 wedges. I have a joseph elliot that is nice but I am always on the lookout for a nice W&B. Good luck to you guys as well.

I got mine - a 8/8 W&B "For Barbers Use" for about $73 (+ shipping to Norway)

You have to prove it... eheh!

Not to worry. I'll post pictures in the W&B club when it arrives in Norway.

Avoid corrosion, specifically on the edge. However, remember that these meat choppers are so thick that you can almost certainly sand the corrosion on the body off. Or have it reground. Personally, I'd rather buy one with a bit of corrosion (not on the edge) for a lot less money, and send it out to be reground and refinished by someone who has the equipment and knows what he is doing, that to pay more for a "clean" one that has been worked on by a hamfisted seller who doesn't know if he is damaging the razor.

Like this one.
