    Question J.R.Torrey - what do you think ???

    J.R.Torrey 5/8 with grapevine handles and on the blade it is engraved with the words "diamond edge"

    Just picked this up and wanted to know if anyone had info on it... like when it was made and or value ?

    I got it because I like the Knotch and love the scales on it and have not seen them before

    Thanks

    I really like that razor!

    Sorry though, I guess I don't have much information to give you. It does'nt look like a common run-of-the-mill Torrey to me

    I didn't know anyone besides W&B made a frosted diamond edge like that. She looks pretty nice. I've seen a lot of razors from that seller, but the pictures are usually sub-par, so I've never bought one. I hope she turns out well; Torrey's tend to be very good shavers.

    Those scales look really nice. I had been looking at that razor and came really close to pushing the BIN button a couple of times. I have bought a few times from that seller, and always was happy with the razor. She is very easy to deal with. I am sure you will like it.

    For 10$, that would be an easy pickup!
