    Got the Wade & Butcher honed up and ready for shaving...
    Near wedge is always a little bit of a crap shoot for me, but two layers of tape and this edge turned out fine.
    Very happy! :happy093:

    Thanks for the link, Tom. I enjoyed reviewing it, and think it’s a really cool idea. I’ve got a couple of broken horn scales and was wondering what to do with them, and that’s a very creative and cool idea. Once I get going on the scale building I think it will be fun to experiment like you have.

    Glad you liked it Randy. There may be better options, but the 2 part Gorilla Glue Epoxy seems to be holding up.

    Shave #25 on the Filly 14 edge longevity test. Still smooth and shaving well. I gave it 10 canvas after shave #24 just because, but otherwise it’s just been 35/65 seude/cordovan. Cream was SMN latered with a Simpsons 57, Thayers Rose Petal finished things up.

    Cheers, Steve
