Nice looking razor.
How do you know it was made by Wade and Butcher? Is it stamped on the tang?

No experience with that one but I have a Henry Sears & Son Queen 7/8 #740 which is a good bit later but a fabulous shaver.
I also have her kid sister a Queen 3/4 #640. It is still in the restoration process so I can't speak to its nature as a shaver but it too is a singing hollow grind so I have high hopes it is similar. It is virtually the same, just a size smaller.Iron by iron is sharpened, And a man sharpens the face of his friend. PR 27:17

Thanked: 6Regards 32t
I bought it with some other razors from a guy in Boston,they were in his displayed collection and all had provenance/info cards.This is the info on the cards,doesnt mean much I agree.The font stamping looks like their script ,to me.Thanks for your comments Best Regards GaryLast edited by gwalfonso; 01-01-2022 at 11:50 PM.
