    Default Wade and Butcher restore in 'Buckeye Burl'

    Picked up a Wade and Butcher 13/16ths wedge on the bay. It was in surprisingly good shape, except the horn scales were cracked. Below is a before picture:

    Decided to get it done in wood as opposed to horn or synthetic material. Sent it to MasterShake who polished it up and put it into some nicely figured buckeye burl scales. He did some excellent work and I would certainly recommend him to anyone looking for a restore. Check out the pics below and let me know what you think.

    I, too, have a razor done by mastershake. I was very impressed, even more so with the stand he made with it and brush. Very healthy looking piece there, happy shaving!

    Beautiful razor I love my Wade and Butcher. Yours is shinnier by far and I love the Buckeye burl scales. Good choice.
