    Good morning Gentleman.
    Today I'll prepare at first a NOS produced by Filarmonica for the " Castagnon" hairdressers in Madrid, the razor celebrates the 50 anniversary of its establishment in 1907, it was made in 1957.
    It is a really 8/8 singing blade.
    Maybe I rescale it.
    Stay tuned.

    I was told honing of Filarmonicas is no prob... that's right.
    So I got my shave just now.

    soap: Thiers Issard
    brush: Muehle Silvertip
    razor: Filarmonica
    ASB: Florena



    It works!
    Special thanks to a friend in Spain who sent this beautiful razor to Germany.

    I've had it since May, though I find that I save it for special occasion...not sure why though.
