    Second time I have seen Birnando do this. Pretty awesome.

    For what it is worth, I have a later Filarmonica #13 and it arrived in a Logo'd sleeve most similar to a Dovo plastic sleeve and compared almost exactly to that brand's grind and quality.

    To say I was underwhelmed by the trade, would be about right.

    I'll do something for him in return. Something like that can't go w/o something in return.

    Knowing Birnando, I expect that paying it forward to someone else would be the absolute best thing you could do for him!

    I rest my case.

    Just to keep this debate moving along, here are some photos of a German made Gens razor looking very very suspiciously like a Filly. And dont forget folks, there is an entire razor club on this site devoted to #14 razors!

    That was very nice from Birnando!!!

    Enjoy your EPBD engine46.

    Very interesting thread.

    But, any final answer to the question: Was Filarmonica made in Solingen?
