Thread: AEVOS 6/8

Hello !

Does anybody knows further details about an AEVOS 6/8. There is "HAMBURG RING, TRY ME" on the the blade, (aevos,solingen) the handle is probably horn.
It shaves fantastic, very good edge but I didn't find too much info about it.

Any more info appreciated !

Cheers:

Alex

Eugen Hoppe, Solingen in 1922. Brand names: 'Aevos', 'Eugenio Hoppe', 'Frogking', 'Hoppeso', "l'Avenire". Open-blade razor maker.

One of my first razors was an Eugenio Hoppe, AEVOS 14...and i know many people will be upset for what I'm about to say.. but that razor just seems to me a twin of the filarmonica 14 doble temple....
yes i do have both and have compared. To be honest, I do not see any difference, same for easiness for honing, same awesome shaves, same wicked edge even the same "sound" and pitch when you touch the edge...

both are better than mi filarmonica 13 medallon taurino.. but between the two of them, i don't see any diference.. to me, the eugenio hoppe aevos might have just sell the same razors with same heat treatment than filarmonicas... just under different brand?

of course the hoppes are waaaaay more difficult to find Hence.. not as famous and expensive as the phillies...
