    Default My first Wade and Butcher - Gemstar custom!

    I have been patiently waiting for a sheffield (secretly hoping some Wade butcher comes along) because I have never Shaved with one. Behold my first Wade butcher and by the master of razor restorations (I say that because he restored a Erik Antonberg for me early last year) Glen thanks, I'll let you know how she shaves tomorrow!

    Any way here she is:

    As per Glen:
    Wade & Butcher 6/8
    Complete Custom Restore / Regrind
    Used a new color of Acrylic called Alabaster a Subtle Yellow and Pearl White swirl.. The scales are also Bookmatched side to side
    The wedge is Black G10 @.055" on the end,, the scales are .110" thick giving a nice sleek feel in the hand with proper pivot fitting to make stropping a breeze and not a chore...
    Pins are Brass with matching Brass washers in & out

    Honing
    Chosera 1-5-10 Select Colticule finisher for a nice comfortable edge...
