Wostenholm and Torrey
I grabbed these two off the bay this past week. They are in OK shape but need some work. I paid 17 bucks for the Torrey which was listed as a Torren. There was some rust over the mark so I guess the seller did not know what it was. I wiped off the gunk, used a bit of 1000 grit to see the mark which said Torry. I like Torrey razors and barber's notches so I am glad I grabbed this one.
The Wostenholm is in pretty good shape. Some hone wear but nothing horrible. It was cheap enough and since I broke the blade on the last one when a magnet slammed into the edge by accident, I was happy to get this one.
Wostenholm on top, Torrey on bottom.

Nice Work! That Wosty looks great! Of course Torry's have good steel. Can't go wrong!

I wanted to get a few blades to work on myself. I am going to attempt to make some scales and do some light polishing. We'll see what happens.
