    Default great weekend haul!

    My new pride and joy: a 8/8 Wade and Butcher Celebrated extra hollow ground chopper! I also picked up the Hone(not sure what it is so i'll probably be asking about it in the hone section). After feeling guilty about spending so much on the W&B i was lucky enough to find the three Gillettes at a flea market to help defray the costs. a Fat boy($5) a aristocrat (needs replating but it should be worth something) and a 50s super speed.
    Thinking the butcher will look good in some streaked black horn scales, this goes on the project priority list!

    Excellent score on the cleaver. I am never lucky enough to find one in the antique shops I frequent. The most I find are rusted hulks that have a huge price tag on them.

    Wow - a spike point W&B chopper....my favorite style, don't see many of the spike points come around...great score on all!

    Is that an 8/8 W&B?
