    Honestly, the difference eludes me. Both shave great.

    I've had 2 of the sello oro Filarmonicas. Both were fantastic shavers that honed very easily. I know a few pro honers that came across some that would not hold an edge.

    Makes it appear to frown. Might not be the case.
    Must confess I hadn't seen that.

    OP could mark the bevel and do 10 roundtrips on a hone to see whether edge repair is needed.

    Its a fine looking razor. Hone it up or send it out for honing and put it to use.

    Yep. Especially since it's a done purchase it is rhetorical now. Better or worse hone it and use it.

    Hi, this one is my first Filarmónica 14 Doble Temple, second generation. I really love this straight and can't stop to admire the quality of steel which is almost 60 years old
