My Great Great Grandfather's Wade & Butcher Wedge

[AntiqueHoosier]

I was originally supposed to receive this razor from my parents LAST Christmas but my mother couldn't locate it at the time. So this Christmas morning, I was surprised to receive my Great Great Grandfather's Wade & Butcher straight. He was from Liverpool England and settled first in the Shenandoah Valley in 1851 and then arrived in New Amsterdam, Indiana in 1858.

The picture is showing the coffin style case and the 6/8 Wade & Butcher Wedge with Barber's notch after a little clean up with soap and water. Can't wait to get this one done professionally. I think I know who may be doing it but will do some research prior to shipping it off. I would like to use it NEXT Christmas for sure!
