    Yes. Perhaps.

    But you're probably not the only one on here using a color coded, removable dot organization system. Or maybe you are......

    Red: needs honing ; yellow: needs touch-up; green: ready to go

    Is that OCD? Do I need to go back on medication?

    I just keep a cup in the window sill for razors needing honed/bevel re-set. If I use one that need touched up, I touch it up after the shave & it doesn't go back into the "rotation" until it's just right. Yep, low tech

    I used to keep a spreadsheet for notes on each razor.
    Once the collection grew, I kinda just ditched that and simply grab any razor when I wanna shave.
    If it's not up to snuff, there's always a few dozens that are

    Everyone that needs honing has a separate drawer so that I can keep track of them that way.

    Much the same. I lift a razor and shave. If it's off and needs to go to the stones I pick up another and put it aside till I get the chance to do it. I must admit to something I realised lately. I love my razors and shaving and all that goes with, but when it comes to the maintenance I appear to be a bit meh lol. I do hone and my razors are in good condition but i don't go to tye lengths some here do. I guess we all have our way, and mine is to essentially treat my razors as tools.
