Thread: Great test razors

I've been testing out new hones recently, but I don't really have good razors to test with. Ideally, it would be nice to have a bunch of the same razor so that I can compare more than one hone in a single shave. Well, I saw these on the bay, and now I have a "flock" of test razors.

Wow, you are going to have some great shavers soon, as well as the results of your scientific hone tests, to establish what hone does what best! They are all going to clean up very pretty too! Nice score.

Thats pretty cool!
Congrats! They couldnt go to a better guy.

Thanks,

As someone that has to be happy with Double Arrows for experimental setup, that sure sounds like music in my ears.

On the other hand, I don't have to worry about ruining my test razors as much. But at $20 each, that's only a sentimental notion. I got the DA's at €12. Not that big a financial difference.

so your the one who got em I went as far as 50 for em

Thanks for the kind words... and for not bidding higher. I just realized today that I have another pair of matching blades headed my way (duh!), so maybe I won't be keeping two ducks after all...

LOL and it turns out that two razors I got in a lot of 4 are also identical (right down to the matching cracks at the wedge-end pin)
