Nice try Steve . Let me tell you a dark secret, that I'm not too proud of, so please don't tell anyone.Absolutely they do. Send me a dozen Swedes and I’ll send you a dozen Paks.
Many years ago I wanted to try something different when it comes to straight razors, and without knowing anything about them I bought a NOS Filarmonica for a price that should have made me suspicious, but at the time it just made want to close the deal as soon as possible. When I got the razor it indeed was NOS, but it was the very last generation (generation 5) made in Pakistan. I tried to shave with it, but it turned out to be useful only as a paperweight. I've still got it somewhere since I can't pass my mistake on to someone else that like me wouldn't know any better.
Since then I've managed find both a NOS 12 and a NOS 13 Filarmonica, both of generation 2. Both are first class shavers.
