What the heck means "Ran Tan Ka Rus"? Something like " abracadabra" maybe? Or an acronym?
My razor do not mention Johan Engstrom, just "made in Sweden". Must I suppose it was made by Engstrom's...

Gents, this thing shaves nice! You know, I collect and enjoy shaving with Heljestrands, but this blade is hors-concours after my honing procedure (100 laps on coticule slurry over "slurry side"...

She's at home. Dirty, scratched, some age scars, but with a beautiful smile. Have no honing evidence on its bellied hollow 6/8 blade. Plain boring black scales, some rust on pivot.
I tend to keep...

Man, you are a brave to shave with this fragile rarity. A bit of paraffin on the blade groove must keep it waterproof.

Beautiful! Kids will fight upon your heritage! :rofl2:

Pretty well cared. A very narrow and uniform bevel, polished very well with common metal polish (the spine/tang seems to be nickel-plated). And it came thisty... a second of deviant thinking at the...

Arrived today. Good condition, from Sweden. My first frameback.

Really beautiful!

Nickel silver pins and washers arrived last friday. Pinned sunday night. It was a long wait.
Very happy to replace the "bleached terrapin" scales for this original ones.

Not the best photo,...

:rolleyes: Just for shaving!

Now I need to know how shaves the MKs #2, 3, 4, 5... 133, 134, the non-MKs just to compare the finish, the framebacks, that one with exquisite scales, kill the buzzard...

Yes, they breed, and by now they are 9!

I guess so. I hope somebody who talks swedish or live there could have a clue. It is hard for non-native speakers to guess what means an acronym, but sometimes it's something pretty obvious for...

All T.E.C.S. Heljes I know of looks well finished and have the letters on the back of the tang, not on the tail.

A question on Heljestrands... What means (or can mean) a T.E.C.S. coined on the back of the tang on some razors?

Wow... I never saw anything like this one before... fancy scaled MKs, sets, turtle, ivory, but never one like this. Amazing!

Yeah, you can smell the envy just where you are, Ferdi.

I often see, here in Brazil, very well made blades with the typical design sometimes shared by the Swedish razor makers. Some of them marked "Aço Sueco" - Swedish steel in Portuguese. It is possible...

Of course, it shaves pretty well.

There is no entry for this particular model on the database, so I prepare to post it there as soon I get the permission to do that (because of this...

Yep... a tear rolled here too...

But today I have something more to share... My MK 1 arrived... ooooooooh... so cute the skinny little thing.

OMG... Pure swedish porn... ;)

Just an impression, or did not any Heljestrand's M***K 1 had surfaced till now? Well, I can predict one heading towards me, so let's check when it arrives.168753
