Filarmonica 14 Especial, a user grade razor (cosmetics) that’s near full width. Always a nice shave from an Especial.

I’m thinking late 1920s to early 30s.

 

Thank you.

 

Saturday Straights' Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Start Shaving Cream (CTAPT)
Jayaruh #224
Fredrick Reynolds 5/8
CWS
Dickinson's Witch Hazel
Pinaud Citrus Musk EDC

The Start Shaving Cream lathered well with the Jayaruh #224 Synthetic brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Fredrick Reynolds 5/8 Straight gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Dickinson's Witch Hazel and Pinaud Citrus Musk EDC. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

By the way old things, the other day on my way to work I passed a German registered Trabant on the highway! Not every day you see one.
