    Default 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.

    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!

    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 Name:  20161117_121246.jpg

    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.
