Here is my W&B Special after Glen gave her a good clean and hone. Just a beautiful simple razor and shaves amazingly! Very happy for as little as I have into it I have a great piece that I will keep and pass on one day. Maybe...

SWMBO had to head back to the city for a day - so this was waiting for me at home and she brought it up for me to the cottage.
The previous owner had attempted to restore it, I gather the spine was warped, and it broke in half at the tang - the two pieces were then burnished together with silver, and it looks great, very solid. Figure this is the closest I'll ever get to one of these, so YOLO....:-)

So you mean silver-soldered? If done right, makes a strong bond.
Someone could be shot with his own gun for busting that!

Silver-soldered - that's it, that's the exact term he used. Said he had a pro do it, and that it is extremely solid, so good to hear Tom that is was the correct way to do it.
