Treasures & Junk
Found these today, the first one is a J.R. Torrey 4/8 OUR 136, has some staining on the blade, not rust/nicks/pits, closes center tight in the scales. I really like the shoulderless design, there was another no name that was a shoulderless barber notch but it was in horrid condition. Any way, my $10 OUR 136

The second is a big humpback W&B barber notch wedge scaled in horn, it is in pretty bad shape, the scales are not savable, a fair amount of hone wear and two spots of rust. I was going to pass on it but for $6 i thought why not.

That W&B looks like a nice chunk or steel , a great project for restoration imo.

Told you it was a slippery slope but you already knew it. :) Nice pair to hone up and play around with for little $.
