    Default Sheffield Steel in Horn: Busy weekend!

    First up, a couple of Wade & Butchers.



    The one on the left was a funky re-grind done way back in the day. Kinda odd, but, it should shave well It got an aluminum lined red acrylic wedge and double pins.. The other one is a nice chopper with the patina left intact. Bone wedge / brass lining, stacked washer pins.






    Next up, we have a first for me... pinless wedge. Black horn scales, transparent horn wedge, epoxy. drilled out the pivot hole on this one to 1/8 so I could fit a threaded barrel and used some Torx screws on the pivot end. (sorry max, had to borrow the dice, couldnt resist. ha.)

    Last one is a Wade & Butcher "American Razor"

    Left some very vintage-looking black pits on this one. I think it suits it just fine. unbleached bone wedge, silver pins, brass washers.

    Great stuff Brad! It looks like you had a fun weekend.
    I hope that won't be the last pinless wedge that you do.

    Nicely done Brad, I am especially fond of the aluminum lined wedge on the one,,, I found some super thin Silver sheets to use, never thought of Aluminum, good idea...

    Nice bunch of razors. Like the bone spacers most.
    The white gleam of swords, not the black ink of books, clears doubts and uncertainties and bleak outlooks.

    That is original, I didn't alter it in any way. I've seen several Elliot's with the same shape, I think it was fairly common... Mr. Elliot must have been a progressive thinker.... ;D
