Thread: The Butcher Shop

All I used was use some used up 2k grit with oil, fresh 2k woulda been too much didnt want to scratch it, the original grind marks are still there, sadly the original scales were busted, but on the other hand love the blonde horn scales I crafted. Cleanest wade and butcher ive found to date.

Mine being a hollow grind ive only seen like 1 other in a frameback too, found it double odd

Ive got some punched stacked washers if you want me to send ya some phrank

Back from the Gentleman's Den, is this 9/8, Celebrated, Hollow Ground Razor, For Barbers Use, I received several weeks ago. Here's a picture of the blade from the auction:



Just had coffee with Valery from the Gentleman's Den, where he passed off this razor after the restore. He said, after cleaning it up, it had almost no hone wear, and it appeared to him that it may not have even been honed before. Also, he pointed out that the grind on this razor appears closer to extra hollow, and that it was in superb condition. The monkey tail for the tang is a nice feature.

Wade and Butcher, 9/8, Celebrated, Hollow Ground Razor, For Barbers Use, 3-pin, in black horn. Think I know what my SOTD will be tomorrow.

If there were a "dislike" option I'd be tempted out of pure jelousy

Mine is the best shave I have, enjoy!

More I look at it the more I really find it a stunning restore. Glen did an awesome job. The scales are really working, and from the last picture, that brass wedge is simply stunning the way it brings the whole razor together. And the brush completes the package, really like the material, and the anchor on the bottom - wow!

Stellar restore for a stellar blade - know you'll use it well and enjoy it!

Pics of another restore by Gssixgun... this was just a hand polish and hone...

And another from Valery at the Gentleman's Den.

This Wade and Butcher came to me in pretty rough shape. The scales were in big trouble, but there was no way Valery and I wanted to see these unique scales hit the trash can. So after over a month of careful restore work, Val was able to restore the scales and the blade, and bring this Wade and Butcher, "Diamond Edge" back to it's original state. Going to have my first shave with it later this morning.
