Oh so cool!! Dan my friend i think you have horse shoes "you know where" ....lol....
Nice Dan, very similar grind to this Klas Tornblom I snagged. This razor is going to be my learning razor for getting it cleaned up and starting my journey into honing.

Another fresh arrival today....protection oil still on blade from very deligent previous owner... Filarmonica 13...my first Spanish blade and only razor in my collection so far with white or bone colored scales.
Thanks Dave!
Very cool, Larry! Definitely some Swedish flare from the razor makers in that neck of the woods.
The Spine on this one has seen better days. Still took a great edge though.
Saw that one. It wasn't labeled as such though I'm curious Larry. Is it real tortuga?

No. I don't have it in hand, yet, but I'm sure it's some form of plastic. I like the shape of the blade, though.
Yes, me too. I'm coming around to this type of razor since seeing one or something similar on a daily basis. The drawback for me is the size and probably not easy to hone because of it. What drew me to this one, if it is the one I'm thinking, is the faux tortoise and the shape of the scales. Congrats she's a beauty.

Larry you know that I like razors like this one a lot. Dave [MENTION=83598]GolFisHunt[/MENTION] helped me find one very similar some time ago. The scales on your razor are from the 1920's and I'm pretty sure that they are original. A very fine razor congratulations.
I don't buy many razors these days, and I try to be very selective when I do. Even so I couldn't help myself when my eye caught this NOS Kron-Punkt with beautiful engraving (not etching). My guess is that it is made sometime between 1920 and 1939. I find it to be very special.
Another beauty, Arne!
Scored my first straight ever... in the wild. Need a bit of help to identify though...

Thank you Dave
It's a nice old frederick reynolds. Sheffield blade. That maker tends to have soft, mellow steel.
