    Default Wade & Butcher restoration

    Well I've just finished the restoration on this Wade & Butcher, everything original including the scales which I'm pleased to say turned out better than I thought they would, haven't yet honed the razor, I have several other razors I must hone first so this can join the queue, I'm really excited about giving this razor a shave after all she's around 150 years old, OK on to the photo's hope you enjoy.

    Mate, well done.
    When I scrolled down to see the pics, I was surprised just how nice it turned out.
    She's a beauty.
