    It's 3/8. Pic's been photoshopped.

    Send it to me, I'll dispose of that toothpick properly.

    I figure everybody is pretty much dead on and MR SMITH, THAT is a gorgeous razor!

    Default You guys are good

    This ol a Torrey arrived today. It measures 13/16 dead on. I'm happy with my purchase and am looking forward to getting it polished and rescaled.

    I agree that it is looking like it is around 6/8, maybe 13/16.

    Very nice find. Congratulations!

    Follow up of OP:

    I wanted to share these pictures of how my 13/16 Torrey now looks after some work by Mark Yundt. He dressed it with black horn with an ivory wedge and inlaid silver liners. It was exactly the high class look that I was searching for. Check out the before pics above and in the original post on page 1.

    That looks stunning. Who needs a mirror, you could shave off the reflection....

    I wish I had another one identical to this. That way I could look in one while shaving with the other!!!
