Extremely nice example of a Wade & Butcher.

Successor to Robert Wade; succeeded by Butcher, Brown & Butcher Sheffield - 1818-1890.
This razor dates from before 1890 since from 1890 the word 'England' had to be added to the inscription on the tang. I believe this one to be from around 1840-1850.

Has been honed and comes shave ready.
