Thread: 5/8 Wade and Butcher Bow Razor

Another rescale of a Wade and Butcher Bow Razor. Lignum vitae with brass lined wedge. Still need to work on my wedges but learning more everytime I do one. Finished in beeswax.

Good lookin' razor. The lined wedge looks great

+1 to that wedge. Nice touch!

Did you cut the brass first and use it as a template or cut the wood first? It looks great

GREAT job. i have an original bow with the box i tried to sell on ebay and didnt get any bites. i think i may do something nice to it like this. i could only hope to get it as nice though. really nice job.

Very nice job! I really like this. The Scales, wedge and blade complement each other very well, none over powering the other.

I rough cut the brass and wedge, glued it all together, and then shaped them to the scales. I basically followed this tutorial:

Illustrated Guide to making a Lined Wedge

Thanks for the imput everybody! Yeah I really liked the way this turned out.
