    Default Matching Set of Lovelies Ready to Party

    Gentlemen,

    Cleaning and honing the Wade & Butcher set was quite easy: a scrubbing with Mass, a scrubbing with toothbrush, water and soap, sanitizing and honing. This is what they look like oiled and ready to party. They took a fabulous edge. The complete shave tests are Thursday and Friday. Thanks for viewing.

    Wow. Very nice find. They are a beautiful pair of straights. You'll have to keep an eye out for a suitable case for them.

    Thanks for the kind words, John. They did come in their own case. I'll have to clean it up. They fit nicely in the rack, or I might look around for a really rustic case or stand that fits both.
