    Reason for asking is that in all # 14's I've seen of what ever the brand, the tang is cerrated and the "nose" is not as facetted.

    Very beautiful razor indeed with "El Principe" engraved. How hollow or how "wedgy" has that blade been cut?
    I actually made no alterations. The Thumb notch is original (and huge!)

    I would say the razor is between a 1/4 to 1/2 hollow.

    To be honest I bought this razor 6 months ago (for super cheap sum of $24) and only got around to restoring it this week. I wish I had done so sooner! It is a top 5 razor in my personal collection and I couldn't believe the edge it took.

    I definitely have never seen another like it.
