Escher & Co. | Razorlovestones

English Version / Deutsche Version
The idea behind Razorlovestones.com in the first step, was to offer a plattform with videos and pictures and a description about the usage and properties of the stones. It was the intention to give possibilities to identify stones in concerns of their
appearance and their individual properties.

But often there is lot more behind these stones. There is a lot of history about the stones themselves, on the company trading the stones and also on the older markets. So my next step planned is to offer some “important” company profiles on the most well known companies dealing with sharpening stones and abrasives.

Here is the actual overview list which are the companies I’m personally interested in, and where i would like to create a company profile. I will start with the already “dead” companies, just due the legal issues which occur if there are still rightholders alive or the company still being active. Feel free to make proposals and also forward me any information if the information might help to correct any data in the profile or might improve the profile.

If you have any personal intend, probably due being named in person here, please contact me so i can remove these details if you want them to be removed. I try to prove any detail in concerns of copyright or personal issues, but it can happen that errors are made. So if any detail has to be removed, email me here before:
