I thought you guys might find this one kind of interesting, I've looked around quite a bit and haven't seen another W & B with a spine quite like this, sort of different, it's out of my collection.

Interesting! Nice looking razor.
I've never seen one like that either. Very cool!
Like all Wades, I bet it's a beautiful shaver.
How is it to strop? Looks like it could really scratch up a strop if you aren't careful.
I'd be taping that if it were me.

Hi Pete, out of curiosity I checked it for anything rough or sharp and it's real smooth, no problem on one of my strops either after a test run. I've never used this one, I don't think it would take much work to get this one shave ready. A little bit of interesting history on this one, it originally came out of the estate of a WW1 veteran who served as a Sargent in the U.S. 1st army, artillery, the razor was packed in his military memorabilia (a nice lot too) and was separated and sold separately, I'm sure there's a story behind it.

I'll definitely get back and let you know how it shaves as soon as I get caught up on my other razor projects, but I'll get there eventually. Glad you enjoyed the little bit of history on this one Pete. I usually note the blade width on my razors, forgot on this one, it's a 6/8.
