    Default Antique show finds.


    Picked up a 9/8th Wade and Butcher FBU, a Double Duck special number one, a 5/8ths Torrey, a couple of brushes and a barbicide jar. Not in the best of shape but the price was right.

    Also grabbed the knife under the razors I forget what its called. The scales on the Wade Butcher are up for grabs if anyone wants them. The guy didn't believe that they were not the original scales for that razor. Lol.

    What make is the Sheffield FBU? Looks like it's in great shape.

    The knife is a mezzaluna. Nice finds.

    Yes its a FBU. It needs the heel reshaped but no major pitting. Took it to the wheels already. Thanks.

    I think the question is who made the FBU? Is it a W&B? A big Wosty?

    State v. Durham, 323 N.W. 2d 243, 245 (Iowa 1982) (holding that a straight razor is per se a "dangerous weapon").

    I apologize. I went and edited the post. Its a Wade And Butcher. He had it in a table top display case. I saw it in those wood scales and was surprised to see it. Thats what makes it fun you never know you will find. I was out yesterday and found the Duck. It has a lot of hone wear but for $10, it will be a good shaver. I am always looking for 2 items. The 1 inch plus razor and an Escher.
