Thanks guys, but it still has a little bit to go. The wife has shut down my work area, for a couple of days(birthday party and guests), so, I will finish it in a few days.
I finally had time to work on it. I smoothed the ground edge some more. I then polished the blade. Next, I honed it to a very sharp edge, finishing with the Arkansas Surgical Black stone. Wade & Butcher. Keen Kutter.
You did a STELLAR job!! It looks FANTASTIC!! Now the only question(the really important one) is how does it shave?
Thanks guys. This one was a nail biter, of a restore. This came from my shave with it. Tonight's shave was with a recently acquired, restored, and honed razor. I had a very nice and smooth 2 pass shave, that left me BDBS. Zero issues. I do like using and honing these old Wade & Butchers. Razor- Wade & Butcher, Keen Shaver. Sheffield England. Brush- Semogue 1800 Soap- Lisa's Natural Herbal Creations "Tobacco & Bay". Very nice mild scent. I'm not a big fan of Tobacco, or Bay, but this stuff works together. Aftershave- Vintage Avon Spicy
