    Of course they'll both need a good cleaning though.

    Yes - that W&B is a fantastic score...any chance of a pic of the grind? The one's I have like that are very nicely hollow ground...reminds me of the Filarmonica's 14's English grandfather...

    Let me know if you think you can't handle her Alan. It should clean up nice though. Any questions... There's plenty of us that can help.

    Oh yeah, that's the same grind as mine, you'll absolutely love that one.

    First few times I shaved with mine after I got my hands on a Fili #14, I had to laugh, that W&B seems to be the standard by which many more modern razors, like the Fili and many others aspire to...the grind on that would have pre-dated them by 80-100 years - just perfection, and AFAIK, the steel provides a far nicer shave than even the vintage razors of the mid-20th century.

    If you remember, a post of your first shave with that one would be great to read, would enjoy hearing your feedback on it....

    Thanks...
