    Default Wade & Butcher regrind candidate?

    A bit unsure about when regrinding is possible/advisable. Would this W&B be a viable candidate? Any recommendations on where to send it if so? I got it for basically nothing, can anything be done with it?

    Have you got a head on shot, of the toe end? That does look like it has been honed and then some.

    I have hand sanded blades with similar hone ware and they turned out just fine.

    Sand out the hone ware lines and when finished hone with a few layers of tape.

    there are a couple of members that do regrinds here. Karlej and Undream (Brad Maggard of Maggards razors) do a good job.

    Same here, add 2-3 layers of tape and hone it, it could be just fine as is

    I think it may be a faux-frameback without the spine, guys. Certainly has a nice 'stop' at the bottom of the spine?

    I wonder if you aren't right sure seems at the back of the spine it is raised by the tang.
