I purchased an antique Wade and Butcher from the 19th Century. What is the best way to clean it? What should I use? It has no rust, but some discoloration and tarnish. Can I clean it with vinegar?

Use MAAS metal polish to polish up the razor and scales. Some guys use flitz too. I have no idea what viniger would do, other than make your razor smell like a salad! :roflmao
I would be careful on the vinegar thing, IIRC somebody tried it and got the "Black Steel" result....
+1 on MAAS, Flitz ,SimiChrome any of those work but MAAS is probably the most versatile
