I borrowed a Filarmonica 6/8, and shaved with it a few time. I'm glad I didn't buy one like it. First, I don't particularily like the 6/8 larger blades. And, I have razors that have cost me under 10 bucks that could shave rings around it.. my opinion, my face. I will say it was a very pretty blade. But, for shaving I thought I wouldn't like it as well and probably would not use it as much. Revisor makes quite a few 6/8 blades at their website.. .or did. They are exceptional things of beauty, but I would not go for them, even though I love Revisor, because of the larger size.
The cheapes razor I own, a Gold Bug made in Solingen Germany by A. Witte, that I bought for about 5.00 gives a bettr shave then the Filarmonica I had for a while. In all due respect, it was not my razor and as such I did not try to hone it, or improve on it. It might have done better with a little work.
There's an old saying about success. It's 5% more. If someone would spend 5% more time on whatever they are doing, many times it's the difference between excellent and "ok".~~ Vern ~~
