    I found a couple of my Torreys still hiding in the cigar box: only the sexiest ones make into my display case haha! (That mostly means curvy Sheffields!).

    Both of mine say Worcester, Mass with the logo on the front of the tang; there is no stamp on the back side. Both are fine American shavers with interesting blade/grind profiles. Yeah, the bottom one has kind of grubby scales and the blade never got much more than Mother's and elbow grease from me-I just shave with some of them!

    Mike-You like Torreys, FR Rattler Grinds AND Wosties! If you like Ators too, you could rule the universe.

    If the Torrey Club ever wants to make a trip to Worcester, I'd be happy to give a guided tour.

    Some really nice Torreys guys. I always really like the look of the old barber notch Torreys and W&B's but I like the super hollow grounds to shave with...I'm sure there's an inuindo about women in there somewhere
