Thread: Very Special Frank Hess Handforged X in Abalone Acrylic

Gugi Gugi Gugi I hope that you know this is never coming home to you my friend... Trust me here, it is going to take weeks, and weeks of tweaking on the hones, and many, many, test shaves, before it is perfect enough to leave my clutchs...

This is a true 11/16 Spike Point NOS blade that Gugi sent me for polishing, to be scaled and honed...
It is stamped Frank X Hess "Hand forged" on the front and has the expected Hess Hair Milk Lab. St. Paul Minn. stamp on the back along with a 100 stamp...

If you have never shaved with a Hess and you like full singing hollows this is a brand you should keep an eye out for....

I used one of the new colors of acrylics I got got in this is called Abalone, it has all brass hardware holding it all together...
Maybe just maybe Gugi might see this one come home in the mail
