    Default 6/8 WADE & BUTCHER - shave ready

    (4)
    Manufactured 1818-1890. Back of blade hollow with Barber notch tip and double shoulder. Blade measures approximately 2 ⅞ x 6/8. On shank "MANUFACTURED BY - WADE & BUTCHER - SHEFFIELD". Blade cleaned, polished and honed shave ready. Almost no hone wear. Dark Horn scales embossed one side "THE CELEBRATED - AMERICAN RAZOR", on other side "PHILADELPHIA WORKS".



    Light coat of oil for protection on blade. Please look at photos as they are best description.

    Honing: One layer of electrical tape on spine. Bevel set on 600 grit diamond hone. Then 6000 water stone and finished on 12,000 oil stone, 20,000 Jasper, 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.

    Payment due in three days.

    Free USPS First Class shipping to U.S. only.

    Thank you.

    $45.00
