    Default My first W&B

    Finally got a good one.
    I've found plenty on my search for steel but they've all been worthless.
    Spotted this one a week ago, didn't have the chedder for it either. Being ive bought others from the vendor, I asked him if he would hold it for me till today.
    Well he did!
    So here it is.Name:  uploadfromtaptalk1436670165987.jpg

    Nice razor. It doesn't look like it was used much.

    Very nice razor. There's just something about the Wade and Butchers they hone well and shave great.

    Very little, it honed up real easy.
    Like it just needed touched up.
    A few rolling X's on 5,8,12k nani's 20 pass's fabric w/cr/ox, 30 pass fabric, 60 on leather. Quick look thru loupe, and into the shower.

    Shaved with my WB Bow yesterday. SOTD http://straightrazorpalace.com/shave...ml#post1518376

    Takes a great edge and shaves smooth as silk.

    Congrats

    I have a bow razor just like it, and it did hone right up and shaves wonderfully. The blade has a nice heft to it also.
