    Thank you for fast response, so is made in Spain, same one who made Filarmonicas. They are comparable with Filas , quality wise? Is same steel like Filas? What are your toughs, keep it original or send it to be refurbished?So is belong to Filys forum or not?
    Many thanks

    It looks nice to me. I would just hone it to a nice edge and shave with it every day if were mine. Beyond that its up to you. I don't see anything thats says Fillarmonica so its beyond my knowledge but I have no doubt it'll shave well.

    I am sure it can. I used to think Filarmonica were the best razor you buy until I obtained one. Yes they are a great razor, but so are many others, so my answer is "Yes". I don't see why Larry can't put an edge on it that you will be very happy with. Congratulations on your new razor.

    Same company, different brand, I think the Monserrat Pous are equal or better quality than filarmonicas, depending on the time when the Filas are produced

    Thank you for the input, I will post pictures and my shaving experience when it will be back from honing, LarryAndro will make this razor better than a Fila for sure. What is nice about this razor , is very well balanced, is very heavy, and the blade is kind of different steel from other blades I have.It say 1936 on the tang.
    Many thanks
