If you only value usefulness you probably only have tarnished and deeply pitted razors, but a lot of people here pay on a very regular basis hundreds and thousands of dollars for somebody they know to take a bar of metal, may be forge it, grind it, heat treat it, polish it and sharpen it to end up as a razor that at the end does the exact same thing as any of your razors.
As the saying goes different strokes...
