Hi gents. Won my first Filly on the bay tonight.
Can t wait to get her home and see how she sharpens up. Being stainless steel, I'm sure she'll be a harder hone. A little more slender than I normally ike in a blade, looks to be a 4/8. But heck, I wanted a filly in the rotation, so took a chance.
Cheers.
Little fella should shave Great! :tu
Looks good Mike! I bet it shaves awesome.
Funny, I just won my first Heljestrand tonight. We're both smiling:)
Congratz, nice find
Nice looking razor. I think that might be a 3/8 model. A filly has been on my list of razors I want to get for awhile now.
My money is on 4/8, nice razor!
I have had a couple of these smaller Filis and once honed they shave as well as the larger Filarmonicas. The only difference is that you have to wipe/rinse the lather more often.
The ones I had were 4/8 if measured from the top of the spine to the edge.
My understanding is that these smaller Filis were meant for hair cutting, but heck, whiskers are hair too right?
