Thread: Need to know how or who to restore Wade&Butcher

Hi my name is Frank I'm brand new to SRP . Just bought vintage Wade&Butcher with sharpening stone, in original old box. Been looking for about a month and reading many forums on SRP. So today as soon as I got my new razor I attempted to hone it on the stone, then proceeded to attempt to shave with a straight for the very first time. Had no brush so just used soap every hair pulled ,took for ever little raw. Don't have a strop yet or shaving cream just couldn't wait!. Need to know how to polish the blade to a mirror finish. Have a crack in the handle, like to repair it or find out where to get a new one. The Lady where I got it from said it was here Grandfathers, so I really want it to be restored to new condition. Please point me in the right direction so I can try and restore my self, or find out how much for some else to do it. Thank You very much for your response.
