    Default Wade & Butcher and RigaRazor

    Yikes, the RAD has been bad this week but couldn't pass up these two razors....

    Both are winging their way to me and should be here before week's end.

    Classic W&B 7/8 American Razor...been on the lookout for a nice one for awhile.

    Riga 17/16 -- this will be the 2nd Riga in my rotation...my other one is a beautiful shaver so couldn't pass up this larger chopper.

    Lol! The finisher hasn't arrived yet, but I'm guessing it may land today (my mail comes late in the day).

    I agree, when I emailed Sergej about his razors, specifically the "Lancelet" style razor, he mentioned, much of his inspiration for many of his razors are the old Sheffield classics.

    The first one I received, is akin to the W&B Ottoman razor, then there's the Mappin, and of course razors like the one you posted, a classic FBU chopper.....

    A. the Nakayama just arrived safe and sound a few moments ago--wow, she's a beautiful stone!

    Substance and Phrank, thanks for your kind comments! When I saw the W&B, I was on it like a hobo on a ham sandwich. Sergej's Sheffield inspiration has resulted in his beautifully crafted razors--saw yours in the Riga thread Phrank and they are gorgeous!
