Thread: A Guillermo Hoffe 14 with Ivory Imitation!!!!!!!!

picked up the rezor from Swedish Ebay, lot of rust and patina, scales of imitation Ivoy, i hope you like it......

That looks very nice. By the way I believe it is Hoppe not Hoffe.

For imitation Ivory those sure look good!

Excellent - I believe it's, "Hoppe" (as UKRob points out), I was fortunate to get a similar one from Swedish eBay not three weeks ago... they are beautiful blades to shave with, congratulations - the Hoppe's are a nice find!

The scales on mine are very similar, but a burgundy colour.

i did scales by my self, no i looked with loupe, is 2 F not p

Nice work! I am with Rob. The fellow's name was Hoppe. Most likely lightly stamped.

ok man i get old , mybe is hope, i J.A Henckels did dem !!!!!

Gentlemen,
Yes, it is Guillermo Hoppe. I have a gorgeous one, a 6/8 round point with the original scales, and it is a lovely shaver. To my knowledge, Eugen Hoppe started the company, around 1922, and subsequently the Hoppe razors were produced under various names, including Eugenio Hoppe, Julius Hoppe and, of course, Guillermo Hoppe. Listen, you can't have anything but a fine razor with the name Guillermo Hoppe.

Yes, Hoppe was an agent for Henckels. Seems he brought their products to many markets. From what I have read, often with a name change!

yes of course its must be Hoppe, like i said i get old i didnt look at it before restoration and after that was lite bit difficult to see it,but i did know it has something to do with Henckels, thanks to make me right.
