Thanked: 4A term for a number of straight razors?
Just wondering if there is a formal term (I doubt it, but ya never know). Like gaggle for geese. If not, then what? How about a 'strop of straights' or something along those lines. I can't be the only gent here who has pondered this weighty question.

Maybe "a pride" of razors would sit pretty here !

Yeah, I call them "crack" because they're addictive like drugs. I need my crack of razors because I'm a weak fool!!

Thanked: 8Just another thought...you can have "a murder of crows" so how about a "sweeney of straights"...(Sweeney Todd the barber murderer).

I'd say lets call them in "sets". A set being 7. I have two sets of non matching razors. :-)
