I picked up a like new srtraight razor today that was marked Hills Hardware Minneapolis. And on the other side CRO HCO OWN. I'm guessing the HCO stands for Hill Co. And maybe the CRO OWN for Crown? Any guess to where the steel was made? Also picked up a Double Duck Dwarf and a Hibbard Spencer and Bartlett (True Value now) with German steel. Sorry camera is on the fritz.
