Thread: Hess razor

I just got a beautiful Hess Stainless Steel Frozen Temper 11/16 quarter hollow with perfect cracked ice scales in the mail today.

I'm sorry to say it's just another of the free honing razors.

Oh well, at least I get to play with it for a little while!

<----this is now floorpizza after I shot him in revenge for sticking a knife into my gaping RAD and twisting it violently

The only two razors I want more than a Hess Stainless are a Wonderedge and a Reaper.

I love my Goldedge and Leader to bits.

Also on my hitlist are: Otto Deutsch, FWE Special #1, a nice Fritz Bracht preferably Tennis Dovo is fine too though, any other double duck, a Wusthof Dreizack, a Wusthof Gladiatorwerk EDIT: oh and a god**** ****ing Otto ****ing Fromm Red Head or other nice vintage Fromm because I like their lines and I've been outsniped 5 god**** ****ing ****ty ****ing piece of **** times on the bay. Its more of a vendetta now than anything. Thats how you know you have RAD. The reason you want something is because you failed to buy it....

Sure, there are production razors.... but these Hess's and the Ducks are just as ornate, and in my opinion so much better. I'd rather pay good money for a rare beauty than the same for a production that is only priced that high because of a cartel. I'm with you on spending loads on great vintages.

Now that wouldn't be my razor you're talking about would it? If it is, now I'm starting to worry it might get "lost in the mail." Just kidding.

No, yours DID get lost in the mail...this is someone else's.

You'll get an evaluation later tonight.

Did it work?

Because, if it did, the I just uploaded 8 photos at less than .75kbs.

It worked!, Looks like this should clean up nicely for you

I would love to get my hands on a razor like that.
x2 for the fact that it has St. Paul, Minn stamped on it and I live a few blocks from hess itself.

Can you post pics of the Hess place a few blocks from you. I would love to see how it looks today. Thanks.

Edit: Never mind. I was able to get a street view with google map. If interested go to google map and put this address in : 1911 Rice St, St Paul, Ramsey, Minnesota 55113. Go to street view and navigate around the corner to the right to see the front.
