    Default Beginners how bad is your RAD?

    Since I started last october 2014, I've purchased a Muhle R89,feather ASD2, Feather AC DX, Mongoose, gold dollar, TI and just bought a vintage heartring and cv heljestrand.

    I kinda feel out of control. I've been eyeing a kamisori iwasaki and trying to resist the urge. I still want a W&B and dulb duck too. MUST RESIST.

    Resistance is futile



    And good luck getting anyone out of denial :<0)
    Good judgment comes from experience, and experience....well that comes from poor judgment.

    It has been bad for me, brutal at times, especially in the beginning. I still have a three razor a month habit.

    Just waiting for my son to be born and I've bought seven, sorry eight vtg straights. I think when those come in I'll some where around 25-30, the best part is they're almost all resto's. Most need new scales, hopefully I'll have few shavers.
