Thread: My new baby

Well after snagging my Filarmonica 14 Doble Temple off ebay, I've been impatiently waiting for it to arrive from Spain. Finally came in today so I thought I'd put up a pic. Can't wait to use her, but she must go off to get honed .

I really don't like the scales, so I plan on poking around a while trying to figure out what custom ones I want to put on her.

I also love how tiny it makes my Henckels razor look.

Congrats that is an awesome blade!! It looks like the "New Baby" is going to eat your Henkells for dinner!

What a beauuuutiful blade! Echt, you're making my RAD flare up!

Very nice snag! I like the way the original scales look, but a set of "evening wear" will look really nice too!

Here's my new baby. I'm drooling. About 13/16s.

very nice . Mine's not much larger at 7/8ths. Still gynormous compared to the 9/16ths Henckels I have been shaving with for the past 5 months. The scales are just cheap to me. Sure I'll still keep them, but I would prefer something like what Aquanin has beautifully made such as -

Congratulations! I'm still waiting for my little #10.

Congrats Bro, Your gonna love it. Every one of mine was a great shaver out of the box. I did nothing, and we're talking Velvet Squegee....

That's a big chunk 'o razor! You could probably use it to split firewood too... Nice snag, BTW.

I keep hearing how great these things are, the problem is that they are outside of the college budget. And it seems that the ones always popping up are 7/8+, where I prefer 5/8. Oh well, at least all the other good stuff is cheap while everyone is distracted
