    Default Simply ...Wade

    This is the last pic I will post today....promise!

    This razor is tang stamped with a simple "Wade".

    What is the date range on this one?
    1750-1800
    1800-1850
    1850-1900

    All help is appreciated.

    I'd say 18-1850, being there's a heel. Earlier model typically didn't have one.

    Yeah, what he said but probably not after or much after 1820.

    It is a bit F'ugly, but the scales look good and I bet you could bring it around to shaving just fine with some time.

    Don't think I would 'wade' through that. Ring-a-ling.

    I'd say pre 1820s as not long after William and Samuel Butcher partnered with Robert Wade to form W&B.
