    I have 7 razors in my rotation and use a different one each day in order that they are stored in.

    I don't have many razors but I just pick whichever appeals to me at the moment. I shave everyday and sometimes use one for a few days and quite often just once. Don't worry about a "round count", let your face and the shave tell you when a refresh is needed.

    Well all too often I am shaving with a razor I have repaired and honed. The ideal for me is to shave with the same razor for a week or so. I find if I use them for several days in a row it helps me get the most out of a blade, although I may or may not which to a similar blade during that week because it tweaked my fancy.

    I only have three razors at this moment but I just pick one that hits my fancy in the moment. Just ordered 3 more waiting for them to be made! I love choices.

    There are some senior members in here that could use a different blade every day for a year and still not be all the way through their collections....Im just looking to get to a 10 day set...7 for regular days of the week and 3 for travelling with.

    I don't have a big collection myself , I have 14 razors, now with most being customs , I just keep what I like to shave with. Not into collecting, or restoring, now as for travel I only need one, my Feather RG folder with a pack of blades. Tc

    I have three, and randomly select one. The only deviation is, from time to time, a razor just doesn't feel right when I start a shave. When this happens, I put it down and select another, or finish with one of the DE. Better to make a change than chop your face up. Generally, the next time I use that razor, everything is fine and it produces a great shave.

    I am pretty new to SR shaving, and going through a bit of RAD right now. I generally only need to shave every other day. I currently have four shave ready razors, and two more on the way. I had a pretty big collection of DE razors as well. I typically just grab which ever one looks right when I getting ready to shave. Sometimes, if I am having trouble with some part of my shave, I will stick with one particular one for a few weeks or a month or until I figure it out.

    I enjoy my shaves, and don't worry about strict rotations.
