Welcome to SRP. That is considered to be a myth by most folks nowadays. It is good to have two, or three to be sure you've always got a shave ready razor available. Sometimes a razor may need a little TLC on the hones and if you cannot do it yourself you would have to send it out. There is always the chance of damaging a razor, through carelessness, happens to the best of us. A tap on the faucet when rinsing, slipping from the fingers and hitting the tile floor. Just a good idea to have at least one spare.


Many of the members become razor collectors and having many is the rule rather than the exception for some of us. Not required though. Check out the SRP library beginner's guide if you haven't already, lots of good info . Straight Razor Place Library - Straight Razor Place Library
