Spanish Straight Razor

[Guillermo Myres]

I am new today to this group, Today I used a Filarmonica - 13 Doble Temple . The cutting part is 3/4' x 3", Ivory handle. The white leatherette case is old and worn, and there is a postage stamp on the case with a royal looking shield - One Peseta
It is a superb shaver. Anyone have any idea how old it might be?
Cheers, Guillermo

No idea, but...... Welcome friend!

Someone here will surely know.

Filarmonica’s are a great brand of straight. Congrats.

I’m not sure how old it is, but welcome to the site.

Hi Guillermo Myres And welcome to Badger & Blade.

The Filarmonica is one razor that is very hard to date, and I'm still trying to date mine as I don't think they kept any records.

Dating is hard, but pictures do help though...
I have never seen a Filarmonica dressed in ivory so my curiosity is picked.

Love these razors, although I have never owned one. Would love to see a picture of yours.

I might be able to help. Please post some picks of the entire razor open front and back and close ups of the tang front and back.

Welcome, pictures of the tang stamps will help immensely.

 

[Slash McCoy]

Yes, pics, please. But whatever the date that is a very nice razor if it is in good condition.

I did not mean that the scales are REAL ivory, just the color

Fili love what makes it so good!

And Alfredo has a Spanish name so it's only right. Being of English descent, please send me all your sheffield blades! Middle name is Jens so I need the Swedish ones too.
