Thread: Wade & Butcher Wood Chisels

I thought I would put this in 'the conversation' sub since they aren't shaving related items.

While looking for a couple cheap tools I could use when working on straight razors, I came across these. There was a couple more W&B chisels with these, but I didn't have much $$ to spend. I thought they were interesting because of the background of the maker. Anyone have an idea as to how old they are??
I reset the bevel on the smaller one, but the larger one would have been a LOT of work.

Maybe the larger chisel would make a good kamisori if I got it reground. jk



W. BUTCHER Stamps. The larger chisel also says "CAST STEEL"


The " 'B' Arrow Cross" stamps

How appropriate for use when working on SRs. There is a nice symmetry there.
