    Default 7/8 Wade & Butcher w/ beveled spine

    I can't wait to shave with this tomorrow. A beautiful blade with a nice thin even bevel. Translucent streaked honey horn with a lead wedge and period style brass collars. The picture does not do the horn justice. Nice balance in the hand.

    That is just beautiful. I've been looking for a nice Wade and Butcher like that for quite a while. Can't seem to find anything real nice unless I'm willing to remortgage the house.
    Enjoy!

    Beautifully done! That is a very attractive razor.
    If I can afford it, I buy the best that I can. If I can't afford, I make it. If I can't make it... I do without!

    I think that spine style is called "arris". But I am not 100%. Either way it is nice.

    WOW! That's a gorgeous razor! Very nicely done... bravo!

    When you are dead, you don't know that you are dead. It's difficult only for the others.
    It's the same when you are stupid.
