Thanks for letting me join the group. I collect old pocket knives and over the years obtained a few razors. I have researched them a bit and the companies ,Bengall and Torrey, seem to be well know but average quality. My question is I were to sell these as is(I have their cases too) what would be a fair asking price? Also any idea the age on them?
We don't do valuations or give price quotes on this forum. It's against forum rules.
Your best bet is to do an eBay search for each one and see what their selling for.
Both are probably early 1900's
Good luck.

Where to sell would be our buy, sell trade forum. Or ebay. And as pete said, ebay search for a price. Welcome to srp. You could get them honed and cleaned and learn to use them. That is something we are here for. Helping other to use a straight.
Give your location. Might be members near you with interest. Just don't know if it is against the site rules as we have a B-S-T section we pay a fee to sell on.
We don’t offer evaluations, because price is very subjective and often vary due to condition, rarity and motivation of the buyer. I see razor like that for sale in the 10-20-dollar price range here locally all the time. Condition is the largest factor.
The Bengal is chipped and will need a bit of work, scales are dyed horn, not tortoise. The Torrey is scratched badly with plastic scales and will need quite a bit of hand sanding and buffing to bring the blade back.
They are good razors, but not uncommon. Restored, they would make good shavers and possibly sell in the $100 range, with the proper scales.
