Thread: American razors.

There is a bit of info in this thread on your Jones MFG Co razor http://straightrazorpalace.com/razor...es-mfg-co.html .

I have a Torrey and a Joseph Turner razor from the time when he was on his own just before going to Torrey. I also have other US made razors and the steel and grinding have been excellent in the ones I have.

Most of us would be lucky to have had as interesting life as Joseph Turner had.

I've heard a lot of good things about Torrey, passed up quite a few of them over the years for some reason, but still like to pick one up eventually. Good looking steel on that one.

It was my very first razor, Ive used it since I was 17.

Im 47 now

Gee Mike............wish I are 47 again! Where did time go? I noticed the older we get, the faster time flies by.

Torrey's are fantastic shavers & although I don't have a jones I'm sure it is as good as many American makers as well.
