Thanked: 634Wade & Butcher 6/8 French point
Manufactured from 1818-1890. Back of blade hollow with French point and single shoulder. Blade measures approximately 3 x 6/8. On shank “MANUFACTURED BY - WADE & BUTCHER - SHEFFIELD”. I believe this is an early razor because it does not have the “ 'B’ IN CIRCLE, ARROW AND MALTESE CROSS LOGO”. Blade cleaned, polished and honed shave ready. Light pitting on blade. Horn scales cleaned and polished. New brass pins and washers. Blade closes slightly off center, so take care when closing.
Light coat of oil for protection on blade. Please look at photos as they are best description.
Honing: Two layers of electrical tape on spine. Bevel set on 600 grit diamond hone. Then 6000 water stone and finished on 12,000 oil stone, then glass plate. Then stropped on canvas with diamond paste and then leather and disinfected. A $18.00 VALUE FREE
I personally test shave each razor before final disinfection. Shave ready is different to each person. Factors like light or coarse beard or beard length come into play. I have a heavy beard and test shave every razor on a two day growth. If razor gives a close comfortable shave I call it shave ready. If it does not shave right I re hone the razor. I hone razors as a sideline and have only had praise on the sharpness of the razors. Check my feedback and you will see how many customers were satisfied with shave ready. I also sell on eBay under vockie20619.
Payment due in three days.
U.S. SALES ONLY! Free USPS First Class shipping. If you want to buy the razor PM with shipping address, email and phone. I will PM back with PayPal email address. Will ship when payment received. Will email you tracking number, and my phone number.
Thank you.
$35.00

Wow, that's a nice piece and a super bargain at that price. I would buy it myself if I didn't already have too many.
