Thanked: 74The numbers on the Henckels razors are just model numbers. If they have more of a meaning, it is lost to time. However, the 1/2 attached to some of the model numbers most likely is a designation of the grind, or hollowness, of the razor. 1/2 corresponding to a half-hollow ground razor.
As for the eBay razor, a picture MIGHT be helpful. Personally, I would just learn to use the Dovo. You have plenty of time to find other vintage razors. Also, don't spend a whole lot on a Henckels (I unfortunately did.). They are nice shavers, but they are relatively plentiful as far as vintage razors go.
Good luck with your straight razor journey and keep us updated!
