    Default 7/8 WADE & BUTCHER 'Hollow Ground' - shave ready

    (9)
    Manufactured 1818-1890. Back of blade hollow with Barber notch tip and no shoulder. Blade measures approximately 3 X ⅞. On blade "HOLLOW GROUND". You can call this a hollow grind or faux Frameback. On shank " MANUFACTURED BY - WADE & BUTCHER - SHEFFIELD - 'B' in circle, Arrow, Maltese Cross logo". Blade cleaned, polished and honed shave ready. Scales soaked in neetsfoot oil. Dark horn scales cleaned and polished. New nickel silver pivot pins and washers. Comes with W & B coffin box in fair condition.


    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 20,000 Jasper. Then stroped 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. Optional insurance $2.75 extra. If not insured seller is not responsible for damage during shipping.
    Outside U.S. I pay first $4.00, buyer pays balance. Optional insurance varies by destination and will be calculated before payment.

    Thank you.

    $75.00

    Ohh, this one is really tempting, but I'm dead broke at the moment!

    Nice razor. Bad timing (for me). I have no doubts this will get scooped up pretty quick. GLWS!
