yes just like that. The scales were in bad shape and I just took it apart for my first restore project. The stamping has some fading to it.

ya just like that. the scales were in bad shape and the stamping a bit worn. took it apart to try my first restore project. was a ebay purchase.

You've got a Wade & Butcher Bow Razor. They are good shavers from what I hear.

Here's a few answers I got when I asked a similar question.
