Thread: Interesting Wade & Butcher

Just finished this Wade & Butcher.
It's a Celebrated Feather Edge Concave Razor.
I don't ever recall seeing one like it.






The scales are horn and are actually translucent at the wedge end.
The wedge is made out of the scale material which was left a bit higher on each side.
Took a beautiful edge.
I'm happy to add this one to the Sheffield herd.

Real nice Pete. She's a beaut!

Outstanding! Great job on a very cool razor. Enjoy !

Thanks Matt!

Mike, Tom probably has a drawer full of these hidden away.

Thanks Tuzi! It means a lot coming from someone that does your caliber of restoration.
I do the best I can the old fashioned way...all by hand. No fancy power tools here.

Wow, that is interesting.
I figure Tom's got a 7 day set.[emoji1]

Har! Tom has but one. I was in the bidding on this one, yet low as it had a bit broken-off up top as i perceived it. Besides.....I have one! Anyhoo, it went way above me!

You have done a remarkable job cleaning it up, Pete!

Well...!!!
How the heck ya think we do it.
I ain't got no grinder, though I pull out the dremmel N greaseless from time t time.[emoji56]

Mike,

I figure that you're one of the few guys here that does things in the old school way.
With all the high tech gizmo's these days we're a dying breed.
I've yet to try the dremel on a razor though.

Its not for all, and takes a bit to get the hang of. But I'll tell ya, doing circles is the best way to keep things even.

And make a magnetic blade holder, gives you the best control with the dremmel.

Wow.
Great idea for a jig!

Imitation is the highest form of flattery as they say.

Thank you sir! Will be stealing this idea
