Can you Identify these two razors

Can someone please Identify these two razors. I was wondering where I can send them to get them shave ready. Also what are they worth.

#1 The handle looks like pearl, it says, " Pearl King" and the blade says "First Class", "Original Solingen"

#2 Razor came in a black cardboard box, the handle is black with what looks like a bear logo, the blade says T. Hessen-Bruch

not sure what you mean by 'identify', the stamps on the shank normally denote the maker, and/or the model, and/or the place of manufacture.

the second one is german company and the first one is probably too. the scales of the first one are what is commonly denoted as 'cracked ice' pattern made of celluloid.

For honing services check either this thread http://badgerandblade.com/vb/showthread.php?t=44244 (the info may be outdated), or

Thanks for the links, I will look into them. I picked the two up at a Antique shop in PA. They were both very cheap and both need to be cleaned up and honed before I attempt to shave with them. I never used a straight before. I have been using numerous D/E for about 18 months now and always wanted to shave with a straight. I want to invest in them if they have some value. If not I can just when the time is right pick up something new.
