Received my NOS no name #14 today. This one is unstamped, safe for a faint Solingen printed on the tang. Looks like a #14, feels like a #14 and shaves like a #14. So I will go ahead and post it here
There is still one available on eBay from the Spanish seller I purchased it from, a good deal considering what it would go for if it had Filarmonica stamped on it.

That "offset" pivot pin interests me quite a bit
The very last "Filarmonica 14's " that Classic Shave sold back in 07-09 the really oddball 7/8 ones had an offset pivot hole..
They were deliberately drilled off center to the bottom, I had never seen that before I started doing rescales on them, can you see in there at all to see if the pivot hole itself is drilled low ????Last edited by gssixgun; 12-04-2018 at 08:06 PM.

Indeed, the pivot pin is not center. It is only off center on one side of the scales, so doesn't seem deliberate but more like a poorly done pinning job.
The blade is still center and the scales can sit upright, but one side of the scales is higher than the other at the pivot. I have a early Filarmonica that also has scales that are not flush at the pivot.

Well, I can add that the factory edge on the razor was flawless. I am typically fussy and will do my own fine tuning on my coticule, but this one didn't require more than a good stropping.

@Badgister: nice. How many mm does it measure? Looks like a big blade.
Kindest regards, Jazor

This one came in for honing
I have seen the Brand before, but this is the first one I have seen stamped 14
