    Default Torrey Razor

    I finally got my Torrey Razor. Since I am from the Worcester MA area I thought it would be neat to shave with an old razor made in the area. Lost one one ebay but just one this one can not wait for it to arrive.

    After a good honing you will have a great shaver!

    Bnick,

    Had my eye on THAT one; unfortunately (for me) it was shipped "US only" .
    Good find though; ENJOY!!

    Regards,

    So YOUR the one who out bid me!....

    Ah well... Enjoy it. Congrats.

    I've got a pile of Torrey razors now and have two of this particular pattern that give me great shaves. I think you'll be very pleased with the result of Torrey steel on your face.

    Torreys are the greatest of the American blades IMO, the steel is a little harder than average but they consistently give the greatest shaves with fewer touchups.

    Nice looker. I just won a Torrey on eBay myself. Welcome to the club! now lets see how they shave. I myself had to pique my curiosity about American steel.
