    They are both noted as being select Thuringian hones and are fairly collectable. Droescher or SRD sold pretty top shelf products. He also had barbers hones and coticules and razors. The whole range was select quality products, I would not be surprised if his hones were pre selected by Escher. I would say grab what you can find at the best price available if you are looking for top quality.

    I might be (shudder) wrong, but I believe Droescher was only a supplier of barber stuff. I've heard that Fox, Droescher, others I can't recall right now, sold Eschers, Hohenzollerns, with their own brand name on them. Not sure how true that is. Pike sold Eschers with both their own, and Escher's name.
    RezDog and dooey like this.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.
