Wade & Butcher -Diamond Edge Razor- 7/8

Hello,
this time it's a beautiful Wade & Butcher "the celebrated fine india steel - diamond razor edge" (they are always rather pompous those of W & B :)).
At first I thought to make a new handle to replace the original, since he had a few nicks it closing point of the blade and a few bites here and there, but then I thought: it is his original and that it was not put so evil,
I decided to keep it and restore it. out came a beautiful color "butter scotch" with a nice transparency.
As always leave room for the photo

That's amazing work! Those scales were indeed perfect for that razor - just beautiful.

I like the fact that you left a little age showing in the final finish. Nicely done. I have that razor on my wish list.
