Thread: razors in reserve

Attachment 150611I really don't know if anyone out there is like me or not. I started back in straights last Aug. and since then have acquired several razors. in all these razors I have gotten 4 that I can't bring myself to use. one dovo Bismarck one boker sliver steel and 2 hinckels one 5/8 and the other 4/8. none of these have been used as far as I know . the bismark and sliver steel came pre-honed. I've several I use a lot but no 7 day sets like some folks. They just look so good. The reason I'm posting this is that I'm expecting another razor in the next day or two and although it's not new it is completely reconditioned and to me it's the best one I will have. any good ways to work up some courage to use these wonderful works of art.(at least to me they are art). I don't have a photo of the 4/8 henckel and the dovo and sliver steel are know to all so I will post the photo of the 5/8 henckel again and the one i'm expecting. The new one was featured on the shave of the day not but a few days before Xmas. I think when I do pass i'll have my wife put these and some shaving crème in my box for the the trip that way I can look good for my main boss.

I tried to put two photos on the post. i'll put it on the reply.
