As did everyone else. Same for blanks used, by the way. I cannot find them right now, but I know of at least three razors that are hybrids, ie they have both Puma and someone else's maker's marks.

    That said, if I wanted to replace a Filarmonica (I wouldn't, I don't care much for them), I'd go for something equally ground. A certain little known brand for the LatAm market comes to mind. Or a Daniel Peres, if you can find one.
