Huge Wade and Butcher For Barber's Use

Something new as of Thursday. Large and in charge, no silly regrinding, just the way I like.

Best one of these I have ever had. Every other one was messed with somehow.

Very nice, and they're a massive chunk of steel, like shaving with a graceful Battleship, have a 9/8 exactly like it, just the way it was made....congrats!

Thats an awesome razor! Congrats

WOW

My kind of blade.
Congrats on a great find.

That's one of a massive blade...WOW! Nice piece of steel.

I changed out the scales for ones from a destroyed butcher for barbers only and took away the rot. I did not think it was worth sanding the blade to get rid of that light fizz at the toe at the expense of losing the beautiful original grind lines. So many are being overly attacked in resto I would rather have it as original as possible. I had to slightly heat gun the horn at the wedge end to reshape and it is all good now Attachment 250107Attachment 250108Attachment 250110Attachment 250111Attachment 250112

Back scale of the original scales. Someone hammered it like a maniac and split the horn terribly. It runs on a bias down 1/3 of the way into the horn.

Man, good show! :tu
THAT is how I like them!

Yes, I am firmly in the originality trumps all camp

They are beautiful blades, found one exactly like it a couple of years ago, looked like it had never been used:
