    Default Not really

    No, but I will could put money it is from a Filly blank. I say this from the shape (it is very like the DT 14) and the fact that I have tried now a couple of Spanish non-filly size 14 razors that shave very similarly to the Filarmonica.

    Here are a couple:

    My most recent one from Dylan:

    Imperial 14 – $75 « Holli4's Straight Razor Page

    And another:



    As I say the shape is too similar to the Filly to deny. Since it is also manufactured in Spain it must be very similar. If it sings when you strop it this is also very much like the Spanish 14 razors. None of this is conclusive but you will know when you shave with it. Let us know how it shaves.

    Wikipedia also tells me that apparently Toledo was the centre of Spain's metalworking industry. I really know nothing of that but it may be something to investigate.

    Sorry this is really a couple of stabs in the dark but I think you have done very well with this razor, I would have high hopes for it.
