    Easy peasy get out!

    Ask her how many handbags, or pairs of shoes she has, and what they cost!
    More than all your razors I'll bet!

    p.s. I still hide mine in the sock drawer
    (razors that is - not handbags).

    I bought my first about 5 months ago. My wife decided to look over my shoulder one day while I was shopping on EBay. That was the best and worst day ever. She cought RAD too so now, thanks to her, my collection has grown to over 70 razors, 5 strops, 4 mugs, 4 brushes and several stones. To counter, she has been buying Fenton Glass items. Heaven help us all. lol

    I now have over 20 blades. only 5 are shave ready. :blush:

    I'm going to send out a few to get fixed up by the pros. Got some hones and a few practice blades...going to wait for Lynn's dvd before I try honing anything...I have to touch up my dovo. There is some blunting.


    I was considering purchasing a digital camera to take pics of the razors, but I'd rather spend the money on more shaving stuff. Besides, my wife has already lost 2 cameras (and 2 mp3 players). my phone pics don't turn out that well. I can try messing with the light so I can get some pics up.

    PS

    There are some excellent video's on youtube by some members here about checking sharpness for newbs. Very good stuff...

    Toxlkwaste ha some great videos...anyone know what his screenname is here?
