Wade & Butcher Extra Hollow Ground
Finished up the W&B today. Blade cleaned up real nice with a minimum of effort. Scales are made from the flame maple that was left over when the Luthier repaired my fiddle a couple months back. Too bad the pictures dont show the shimmer and shine when it is rolled back and forth. Not fancy and no real fan fare. To me it is just understated and elegant.I did a brass lined wedge and a CA finish. Will hone it up tonight and give a test drive in the morning.

Flame maple is absolutely beautiful wood & I can just imagine how it must shine. Nice job bringing it back!
It was in original condition, faded red, well-worn, but nice.
This was and still is my favorite combination; beautiful, original, and worn.

Excellent work, very clean and simple works the best w/these I think.
Mastering implies there is nothing more for you to learn of something... I prefer proficient enough to not totally screw it up.
