Thread: Date of a Wade & Butcher

Looks like the Cornucopia or horn of plenty. A fairly common etching. I believe that etchings became popular in the 1850's and according to the 'Standard Guide to Razors' were very popular through the 1860's. A guess at your razor date 1860 -1890. Although there is some hone wear the grind/blade shape has not been altered. A very typical square point near wedge blade shape. I'm sure it will hone up into a fine shaver.
