    Oh and it says

    A.W-----SHAW
    &-----S
    GERMANY

    IDK if there is something there between the W and the SHAW. I figure the second line says & SONS

    Any ideas on the age of the two blades?

    Okay so after further review it's not a wedge..... somewhere between 1/4 and 1/2 hollow. I think I'm beginning to get confused with all these terms/options/features. LOL

    So the other 3 came in....

    The Clover Brand Red Man is gorgeous, Bob Keyes did a great job. Thanks Bob.

    The other two well lets see where do I start? The one with yellow scales looks to be about a 4/8 round tip and says Peaso... Solingen also there is a 27 and then there is a guy wearing a hat and looks to be holding 2 buckets. The scales are a little warped but I can probably straighten them.

    Now the W&B..... looks good except I think some schmuck hit it with IDK what but the edge looks like it got hot......... SUX. The scales need a lil help too. IDK how big a deal that is.

    I'll get pics soon.

    Bob did a fantastic job... as soon as I get my Tony Miller Strop I will jump in feet first and go for a shave.

    Next is the Peaso....

    This blade I think is going to clean up well I just need to get some scales or fix the ones that are there.

    Now the Wade & Butcher.... I'm a little bit irritated about this one because I was looking forward to having a nice one of these.

    IDK if the temper is screwed any ideas on how to check before I spend time and money? It needs scales too.

    Any advice is really appreciated and needed.

    Thanks

    Here is a group shot. So far I figure a little bit of sandpaper and a bunch of MAAS. The blades will be set. I need to buy a few pairs of scales and get the four of them honed. I should really be able to figure out what I like.
