From left to right:
1. Vintage Weck orderly prep razor, full size. 2.25" blade, 5/8.
2. Filarmonica #14, "Jose Monserrat Pou." Originally 8/8, now 5/8, full hollow grind, 3.25" blade.
3. Custom restored Birko Best 6/8 Solingen, 2.5" blade.
The Weck is easily the sharpest of the lot, owing to the fearsome Personna blades. It's also my favorite, but I'm learning the others. Between the two straights, the Birko is easily better. The Fili is huge and awesome, but equally awkward.
