Ebay listing:
Wade & Butcher curved blade straight razor.The razors blade has rust pitting but could be sharpened by someone with the knowledge to do so.I do not know what the handle is made of but it looks like it's plastic.This razor looks pretty old and I don't know if they made plastic back then.The blade itself(no tang included) is 1" wide and 3 1/4" long.The total opened length of the piece is 10 1/8".Thank you for looking.
So I got this in the mail today and actually it's 17/16. Super clean. The scales are shiny like a 70's cadillac and after honing it should be pretty much shave ready. No resto needed IMO.
The small amount of rust along the edge might bring it down to 8/8 after honing. It's big, it's heavy, it's a W&B. What's not to love.
Thanks for looking

Great find, I agree that blade is perfect the way it is.

Nice no nonsense W&B. those scales aren't horn are they?

Very nice score.
It appears that there is a vertical line near the heel where the blade color changes. Is that just lighting or some odd stain? Regardless, I'd be proud to own that one. Enjoy!
