How many straight. Razors do you have
I checked and saw no recent threads on this, so I thought I'd ask.
i have 5 now...1 from 30 years ago, and 4 since resuming in June. I always think I'm done, then I browse around this site and wind up going shopping on-line.

3 shavers (Revisor Gold, Dubl Duck Dwarf, Clauss USMC) 1 cheaply that I'm using to learn to hone with, and an Army & Navy that I'm slowly restoring. My goal is to have nice rotation of razor from all different places and ages.

I originally thought 14 like pixelfixed stated. Unfortunately my RAD did me in. I've sold off five, given one away, have several I'm not counting because I'm not sure about them yet, which leaves me with a rotation of thirty (!). Four are at cud's for edges and when I get them back I will draw up a list of make and style and post it here (been meaning to list and post for awhile anyway). Mainly one of a kind except for C-MON and Bengall and Geneva(Genco).
Thanks Haroldg48 for staring this show and tell thread."The sharpening stones from time to time provide officers with gasoline."

Thanked: 284Not at home to count exactly, but only around 10 or so. Seems like I buy and sell a lot to hone in on ones that provide the best shave. My plan anyway is to learn those edges such that they provide fantastic shaves, then really only dabble here or there when I find razors I like.
This is prophetic - I'll look back on this post a year from now and laugh when I've bought 50 more.I love living in the past...

I still only have one. I don't know how many times I have been on the verge of buying more but then my sense has taken over, luckily. It would be nice with more but I don't want to spend to much money at once. But some day it will grow to more than one.
I am interested in buying a few razors and hones to start to learn how to hone but it's quite a lot of money we are talking about then. A cheaper option is using the straight I have and try to refresh it myself on my Zulu Grey for as long as I can and then starting to look in to another razor and some more hones.
