    Default Wade and Butcher - please help to identify inscription on scales.

    Hello,
    Could you please help to identify is the scales of W&B are original. Scales are made of horn. The inscription The Old English Razor is visible. But I do not know if Butcher used such scales with such inscriptions together with its blades. I will be very grateful for the help!

    I think...
    Frederick Renolds used those scales. The pics of the pins are hard to make out to tell if they are original or not. Dont know if W&B used those scales.
    I think the scales say "old english razor".

    Someone will pop in and answer more soon.

    Hi Gasman
    I also could 'see ''the old english razor'' inscription on scales. This pushed me to think if the blade of W&B and scales are really belong to each other from the beginning. But seems like not. Could be an act of restoration.
