Wade & Butcher 7/8
Just want to show off my latest ebay impulse .Its in very good condition apart from some lihgt ruat in the pivot area & some staining that should come out with abit of elbow grease & Mass.
The edge will be rehoned as there is a very small chip in it.Let me know what you think.Paul

I thought you were trying to get down to only one razor?!
It's tough to quit, isn't it!
Fantastic looking razor! I put a bid in on one just like it the other night, but lost it by $1...
When you really want to trim down to one razor, and unload this big, unsightly wedge, you can send it my way!
Enjoy!

Nice acquisition! I love W&B's and that baby could sit on my shelf any time not to mention shave my face.

It cleaned up very easily & was a peach to hone ,so after a sterilization with my contact disinfectant I gave it a go .
Very nice shave with no pulling & it passed the HTT test with flying colours .
There is a small split on the handle at the pivot point so I may well be in touch with Traveller for a nice set of Blue scales.
I'm having real trouble trying to aviod Ebay ,ect so the Herd is probably going to grow again.Paul

I used my Spyderco Ultra fine hone to finish the edge on mine after honing past the small chip on the edge . Originally Posted by gatorfan

I used a Medium Spyderco ceramic to hone the chip away .I hope this Is of help .Paul
