At what point will this Wade and Butcher need a regrind?
I recently won this W&B from an ebay auction and I was hoping I could get some opinions on if/when it might need a regrind. I've gone over it with some mothers and got off the superficial rust. The etching is intact enough. Originally, I thought I would go ahead and make the blade a mirror finish. The honewear is more significant at the toe of the blade and I was curious how many honeings it could go through before needing to be reground. No point in dumping time into a mirror finish if it will have to hit the grinding wheels soon.
