Thread: Wade & Butcher Comeback

Producing a fine custom razor that looks like a Wade & Butcher is certainly possible. But if they stray into production razors ?? Can you imagine the nightmare of flooding the market with a inferior blade with the appearance of a FBU . Hopefully any modern blades will be readily distinguishable from the originals.

Doubtful that a production razor would have horn scales and the box would be modern so those probably would be one way to tell.

Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in!

Good thing I am full of old ones.

Hopefully this is worth watching and not a big let down...
Let's hope they resurrect the Wade & Butcher name and do it the justice that it deserves.
We'll see!

Could be interesting. Added my name to the list of mildly curious..

Makes me scratch my head and think where are all these skilled grinders and Honemisters going to come from, it's not like you can pick up where they left off many decades before it just doesn't add up in my head.

I heard that production will be from the Gold Dollar factory and Master Shifu will personally hone evey razor
