Thanked: 433We don't allow price quotes on here, but Torrey's are known good razors and it looks like it will probably hone up well.

Seems like you got the Torrey at a fair price. Hope it hones up nicely for you!

It looks like it has experienced heavier honing/wear at the toe, but it will be a perfectly serviceable razor.

Thanked: 433You seriously can't go wrong with a Torrey, I would have who ever hones it, tape the spine so as to not add anymore to the wear, It looks to be in really good shape otherwise. Ebay can be a crap shoot and I think you won this round!
