    I just finally honed it the other night but haven't used it yet. I put tape on my spines to keep from having spine wear & I had to cut the tape a lot more narrow because the blade isn't as wide. I'll see how it goes this next time I shave, I'll try it around my mustache area.

    Default Wade & Butcher Mustache Straight

    I remembered this thread & thought I would add to it.
    I have been going through my straights to find a certain one but I can't seem to find it but it'll show up. I came across this one & had forgotten I had it but it is a Wade & Butcher most likely for trimming mustaches. The blade is 7/16" wide.
