My Girlfriend is Awesome
She's on a cruise ship gig as a singer right now, bouncing around the Mediterranean until Fall. I try to keep her well informed of my (ahem) razor habit so in the off chance she happened across a gem during her travels she would know good from bad, too much from too little.
Well today it paid off big. She emailed me the two pictures below with no information, no indication of anything. I tried to keep my cool. ...
... Hours later we meet on iChat and she finally tells me about the flea market where she found this razor for 40 Euro!! She made me proud, and it even matches her fingernail polish!
It's a Filarmonica Novodur 14 in red plastic scales, with the blank geometric designed box I've seen around the spanish auction sites. It needs a bit of Maas but otherwise is in great condition.
Gentlemen, let the ladies in on it.
They can help you.

If her sister is taken I would cheerfully accept an invitation to meet her mother.

Oh, it's a razor thread. I thought there would be pictures of your girlfriend. My bad.
Don't get hung up on hanging hairs.

Your girlfriend is indeed awesome. Mine also supports my habits and even talks forum with me sometimes. It really is wonderful.
A great razor, just mind the washing when you MAAS (I'd leave her as is, so long as there's no active rust, cause I really hate to risk gold wash - also why no blades in my rotation have gold wash).
