    Default Another "In The Wild" Find!!

    While walking around the local flea market today, I came across this little guy and thought he might need a new home. Should be a great candidate for restoration.

    It should work out good. It looks like an older Torrey. I am not sure how the age dates on Torrey razors go. They have had a few different marks that should help you find an age range.
    It's not what you know, it's who you take fishing!

    Hopefully that edge is free from that rust I see. If not free, hopefully shallow. Very nice find and I hope it cleans up well for you!

    It's a Torrey. Looks to be a little surface rust that should buff right out. There's some kind of residue, possible old oil, that has gummed up on the blades. But overall, it's in pretty good shape.
    HARRYWALLY and outback like this.
