Thread: Wade & Butcher Quarter Hollow 5/8

I picked this up last night from a local lady for $20.00.

As best I can tell, it is a quarter hollow or near wedge, not quite full wedge and it measures up at 5/8.

I know there is a lot of uncertainty surrounding the W&B lines/dates/etc, but I'd like anyone with some knowledge to take a look at the blade etching.

I've looked at a great many forum threads and haven't seen this logo anywhere.

It says Wade & Butcher, Sheffield, with the arrow and the iron cross, but is also says Corporate Mark. Please see below:

Thanks up front for everyone's ideas and input.

I've seen 'corporate mark' in the past. Check out the butcher thread in the razor clubs and you'll probably see some.

Jimmy, I found a couple in the butcher shop as well, but most had a more ornate logo with additional etching/stamping on the blade. This appears to be a pretty plain-jane model, which is alright since I intend to hone it up and shave with it.

Thanks for the Butcher Shop reference.
