I've had this wade and butcher for a while and I'm just now starting to work on it. I've had it for years but still don't know what year it is. Any information will help. Attachment 182510Attachment 182509

A picture of the cutlers mark would be helpful to those in the know.
Cleaned it up as best as I could.Attachment 182522
I figure that old razor was made 1860-1880. Get her fixed up, it'll still shave. ;)
It looks like it is this model: Attachment 182537

Buddy of mine has one that is an 8/8. Doesn't look like it's been honed but a very few times. He doesn't use it for anything except to aggravate me. He won't sell it or trade it.
He's a pack rat and thinks it's just too cool to part with.
Can't blame him, if it was mine, I wouldn't part with it either. ;)
