    Default "RAD" It's also for Newbees...

    DOH!!! I have to stop going to Ebite... Got a few more razors comming...

    I haven't even seen the restoration DVD and I'm already aquiring goodies to rebuild... Oh boy!

    I just got...

    -A. Henckel - Twin Works #8
    -Clark & Hall
    -Joseph Rodgers - 'Bell' - Belfast

    And should see a "CLARK BROS" razor with a worked spine any day.

    Anyone else also suffering RAD so early in the hobby?

    I actually think RAD's the norm for newbies. Once you get a nice big number of razors then you *may* begin to lay off. Enjoy the ride.

    Btw, I do not encourage RAD, SBAD, etc. at all and wish I had more discipline myself. I am pretty good w/ brushes, but the razors...

    Cheers

    so many razors so little time.

    i have one shave ready from josh that is great, one ebay razor and 3 wapienicas. i have honed the ebay one and one of the waps but they still arent quite as comfortable as they should be. so i have decided that before i get any more razors i have to get a coticule and learn how to hone them so i can get nice comfortable shaves. once that happens i am sure i will surrender to my rad. i have a short must have list already going...

    cheers,
    ryan

    yeah, but while you are saving for a Coticule and improving your skills all the good razors are snapped by the ebay jedi
