Heljestrands are fine razors and popular with many members here. The numbers relate to the size if the blade. You will see that the 134 is ~ 1/8 larger than the 133. Get them honed up and put them in service. You will enjoy the shaves with them.

That is odd; I've never seen triple digits on a Helje that I can remember. Maybe the 1XX is for non-thumbnotches?

We all know Leon is joking when he asks "Wanna sell them?" as soliciting sales other wise known as 'WTB" posts are not allowed in the open forum. Originally Posted by Leon

Wow, what nice blades! I´m pretty sure they´re not 133 and 134, but it´s a "dash" / 33 and / 34. Never the less you have two very nice and higly rated razors there.
edited: I looked again and I´m not so sure I´m right anymore. Those are "wrong" in how the blade shape is forged. Can you actually read Heljestrand on the tang? Maybe they´re a prototype, or something?Last edited by Mikael; 09-25-2010 at 07:11 AM.

You may have it! Most Helje's I've seen have been square points. Originally Posted by Mikael
