Hi,

I recently paid a visit to an old shop in Madrid who sold a filarmonica straight razor for 50€. Don't know if it is identical with the one on the link but it looked similar.

Anyway, the staff said that this razor was not suitable for the face, but only for the hair on the scalp. He claimed that the razor was not heavy enough to be used for the face. However, the guy was not a barber so he might have missed something, or are there specific straight razors for the hair on the scalp contra the beard?
