    Default Thanks to Max!

    I apologize that my iPhone cannot do this razor justice. Max you passion for your work is astounding. This razor most certainly had a long journey home........perhaps 120 years or so.

    Amazing that with just a little tlc these old tools will last for a few lifetimes and with an upgrade by one of the master craftsmen we are fortunate to have here it just gets better and better!

    One of my favorite things about that Wade & Butcher is it just fits my hand perfectly. Of all my razors that is the most comfortable to shave with.

    The stand is from SRD's selection. And yes ebay was the source, it was that thumb notch that caught my eye as well.

    Max is Mr. Shine. I too am lucky enough to have a blade that he did, and in the same way than newbies to shaving/honing need a razor honed by da honemeister, anyone who wants to restore needs a piece of art that has been graced by the buffmeister.

    Enjoy that baby, LZ. Another beauty, Max.
