    Although, I asked about it on Facebook and a friend of mine on the other side of the country has a couple of nice looking ones he has never used. There is a small part of me that wouldn't mind finding out what he would take for them. L0L

    I have many, but not as many as other members. I just purchased an iwasaki tamahagane, so it looks like I'll be selling many of them...

    Four: One to start out. Two for when one needs honing. Three because I honed it from "zero" at a meet-up and bought it since I felt invested in it. Four because I wanted to see what a 4/8 is like.

    Why three DEs? One for an aggressive wide gap. One for a super-non-aggressive narrow gap. One because it's vintage and pretty.

    Why four brushes? One crazy-expensive silver-handled badger as a gift. One CVS cheapie by Kent. One Omega and one Semogue because people love them.

    Why seven soaps? Variety of scent and of substance (glycerin and tallow).

    As has been said, "Way too many." At one time, if a razor caught my eye, I bought, so I have several that I've shaved with once or twice and then just didn't use again. I really need to sell some of them, but I can't decide which to put up for sale.

    Don't confuse need and want!

    I have never counted and don't care to.

    I have 47 in rotation at this point with others waiting to join them. Why... Because I love to restore, hone, and shave with them. Never sold any, but have given some away . all shave well, some better than others.

    Have you ever seen the original movie Conan the barbarian with Schwarzenneger, when his father told him the riddle of steel..... Well there you have it. [emoji6]

    A lot, not enough.
    I get them to restore and sell but most times they turn out so nice I can't bring myself to get rid of them. Lol
