Thread: Unknown Wade & Butcher, anyone see this??

I think this is a misconception. All Wade & Butchers are sought after, yours included. The larger blades, 6/8 and up, are in the highest demand. The quality of the steel will undoubtedly be like the millions of razors they produced: Great quality. The shave: top notch. Unless it has suffered some temper damage, and provided you can put a good edge on it. Fear not, these things are rare. Great find, enjoy it

Thanks for the input guys! I still don't have any real information on the razor other than a date that it was produced after!
I do look forward to honing it up and adding it into my shaving 'rotation'

Great find and great razor!
Did I say I do love Wade & Butcher??

Great find! Also, the only good use of a cigarette.

What's with the hate on everyone has for smoking!? Is this smokers anonymous or something? I cringe every time I lite up but can't seem to stop! I've already given up carbs, sugar of all kinds, all artificial sweeteners, alcohol, etc. I'll get there eventually!

I have the right to hate it, I smoked for 17 years. Besides, it was meant to be a joke, given the clever way you utilized the cigarette. Nothing against you personally.

I figured it was a joke, I had nothing else to support the blade so I grabbed what was closest and most suitable! I see a lot of guys putting brass shell casings in their pictures which looks pretty cool! Maybe i'll buy some ammo just to do this :P
I know you were joking, I really do hate smoking but can't get off of it right now

Guilty as charged on the ammo.

I roll my own smokes and using one of mine to prop the razor wouldn't look good at all.

I hate what the damn things do to you too, but sometimes I wish they were 3 feet long so I didn't have to light 'em so often.
