My new RigaRazor 17/16 (Böhler), horn scales. Arrived very sharp but a bit harsh on my face. Went back to the Chosera 10K and then a hard black Ark and it's now Pavarotti Nessun Dorma
. Hope to try the harder Tungsten steel sometime.....

Thanks Phrank. Those are his scales. I have not seen them on his razors since that one. Originally Posted by Phrank

Just got mine today.
7/8 with black micarta scales.
Needless to say, I'm excited about tomorrow's shave.

Thanked: 2691 Stunning Special Order Replica Riga 9/8 W&B Clone custom by Sergej...
One of my favourite Wade & Butchers, a 9/8 smiling chopper with a thumb notch, in virtually NOS condition, has been one of my prized razors since I started, and was the second W&B I purchased.
To refresh your memory, this is the one I'm talking about:
I asked Sergej, the master of RigaRazor, if he could make me a replica of the blade in Tungsten steel, which in my opinion, so closely, at least the way he does it, perfectly captures the feel of the vintage, antique Sheffield steel.
So Sergej has outdone himself again, this will be the fourth Riga Razor I now have, and can't wait for this to arrive...behold
