Thread: Score!

I found I nice little treasure today at Uncle Frank's house today. He was my grandmother's uncle. The house has been abandoned for almost 20 years except for the brief period when my band practiced there a few years back. I went up there today to look for an old shave brush I remembered seeing and decided to do an all out search. Well I found a bunch of old knives, a few DEs and some arrow heads. I was about to leave when I noticed a little pack of leather rolled up and tied together. JACKPOT! The first one is a Genco Masterbarber. The second is an Imperial and the third is a Wade and Butcher 7/8 inch. I've been wanting a bigger razor and the WB is perfect. I may eventually do a full restore but I'm just going to clean the rust up and hone it. Just wanted to share

That is an amazing and beautiful score. Congrats

That's a nice haul there. Good luck on the restorations!

Very nice! Good on you and remembering to give it a once over.

Thanks guys! I'm hoping to get an edge on the wade and butcher tonight. I reset the bevel on it but my 6000 king and Cnat are at home so I have to wait a little for the final touches

It is pretty tough to beat a nice vintage Wade and Butcher, I love both of mine. Good luck on giving her a new life!
