Shave Well W&B
Hello all,
Here is one of the latest projects. I thought the blade was rather cool. It's a Wade and Butcher with the etching still wonderfully intact! I tried to keep the scales in the same theme as the blade.
I should have it finished by tomorrow or Saturday.
enjoy!

Those are some great looking scales. The scrollwork really goes with the blade etching.

I had the opportunity to buy one Sunday, but the edge was chipped the full length. Would it be worth buying and rubbing the blade across a hone to get the chips out.?

Very nice! Your work is always stellar John.
I have two of these Shave well razors, one w/ the etching and one w/o. They are great shavers but a bear to hone especially of there is a lot of material to reset the bevel.

That's going to look great! Is that a 5/8? Seems to have never been honed (judging by the full width etch)
