    Default Torrey Restore

    Resurrected this Torrey.
    Pitting near the spine on the "B" side meant i could only reduce and not eradicate.
    Very tough steel on this one..

    Looks great. I really like the scale pattern. Too bad they didn't use it on more blades.

    Ditto on that. I really like those scales. That engraving is pretty sweet also. Some of the American steel is very hard.

    Great Torrey! Those scales are nice. Made of hard rubber or Bakelite. I have some and just adore them. Bought them with a toasted blade. Had one in mind..

    Found a picture!
