Thread: The Filarmonica

Why is that turkey **** in a
cemetary?

Don't care where they strut.

Oddball, indeed.
What was that story behind the Carl Monkhouse Filly, Jimmy? Filarmonica branded some razors to the American market or something?

I am the happy owner of four Filarmónicas: two #13 Sello Oro and two supposed for hair cutting mini razors, but perfectly suitable for face shaving.
They are all NOS, even the white #13s was bought by myself 15 or 20 years ago. Any of them was never used and they all are still waiting for my first shave when my skills can ensure my survival.
Regards.

I too have a Taurino that nowhere (on the box, tang, or blade) says Filarmonica. I thought it was a freak.

Dream of 7 Fillys Barbas Duras for a weekly set.

I think that is a reason they cost so much as well. You only need one but by all means chase that dream.

How cute is that. The tiny fillies have rubber bands in the shank.

Hi, Leon,
As you say, there are a really few Fillys for hair cutting that features the rubber band and also the engraved blade.
Thanks for your appreciation.
Regards from Spain.

This is the only Filarmonica I have at the moment. I let my barber use it, he loved it. I wiped the Camelia oil off to photograph it so that means I will be shaving with it in the morning.

I need several more.....

JERRY
