    Default Interesting find concerning JR Torrey

    I have a Torrey razor I love (thanks Smythe) and hopefully another on the way. I wanted to find out a little about the razors and came across this bit of interesting information:

    Joseph R. Torrey

    If anybody has anything they can add to my investigation it would be appreciated. Facts and opinions welcomed.

    Thanks,
    Ed

    Torrey was from the STL area?!? I didn't realize that.

    Edit: I'm slow, disregard.

    Also, here's a bit about the Torrey name. I'm sure you could find more if you dug around..

    If I read the article correctly he was from Worcester MA. Or perhaps I just read the wrong thing ;-). Great article though.

    Thanks,

    Al raz.
