    Picked up a Wade & Butcher Razor at antique store today! Dirty but in great shape except for loose pivot pin and minor crack at opposite end of scales. It is engraved/stamped..."Fully Concave". Both sides of tang near the stabilizer has what looks like a pyramid stack of balls with line radiating out of the stack; and reads Wade and Butcher Sheffield, England with The Circled B Arrow Cross mark at bottom. Scales are two piece carved pearl. Can anyone tell me the time period of manufacture. Yhought i remembered seeing an explanation a while back but cant find now. Thanks for any good info!!!
