This seller should be avoided unless you're absolutley sure you know what you buy.
It could have been much worst ...trust me you're lucky you got a razor that will clean ul nice and will get straight onnthe hones.
Best regards, Ovidiu.

Sorry to hear that you had a bad experience with this seller. I have actually been quite happy with my purchases from him. The razors that I have received from him have looked better in person. I see that his razors are shown with a ruler now. Maybe your experience is why he does that. Again, sorry for your experience.

I have bought a few razors from this seller and I agree that you should watch your step there. My Novodur I bought there turned out fine after cleaning and repinning.

Here is my one an only filly

Filarmonica doble temple

Just arrived this early 14DT


Next to my 13DT

Mostly we just find them on eBay there are a few sellers that have a bunch an start them at a low price with no reserve the one I got came off of eBay an the guy has one more but it is one of the smaller ones it still Gives an incredible shave.

Guys, i don't know if this is the propper place to ask.
I need a pair of nice looking Filarmonica no.14 scales.
If any of you have a spare set left over after a restoration...i need them badly...pm me.
Thank you!

Anyone know when a Novodur without a size number would be from?

I picked this up yesterday for a decent price. It looks good. Just wondering if anyone has any idea an approximate date of manufacture. I'm excited to get this Fili shaving!

Bit of an odd ball. First I have seen without a number. Looks about a 12 without seeing the whole blade. Nice razor.

Very good eye! The box, in hand written pencil, states it is a #12, 5/8ths Novodur. I spoke with someone who said there were no #12 Novodurs, which made me nervous about the razors authenticity. Any idea on whether it is a legit Fili?

Definitely counterfeit and may contain nuclear by-product. Lucky for you I have a facility to dispose of such items.
There is usually a substantial destruction fee, but because you are new here I am happy to waive the costs if you pay for postage...
