    I actually sold down to ONE! ( But I do have a handful on their way to the house... I am hoping to assemble a 3-5 rotation, down from just over 800 at it's peak)

    The last razor I bought......that's only because it crushed my slush fund, it's only a matter of time until I correct that situation.

    I can safely say that my Rad is now in remission

    I used to have more razors but I am now down to my best 7 (enough for each day of the week) and sold the rest.

    I cant say its only 1 razor that made me come to this realization but rather 1 razor from my favorite manufacturers. An old Filarmonica 14, a puma high class in 6/8 and a twin henckels 17. I will never part with those razors

    Awesome Helje! Congrats on adding it to your stable. I predict you will enjoy SRAD-Remission. Right up until it returns().

    One of my last two unicorns is on it's way as of last night: a tamahagane Iwasaki western style is inbound. I just have to complete payment and punch some airholes in a shipping container so my first-born is delivered well aspirated. Plus I never used that arm and leg anyway...
    !! Enjoy the exquisite taste sharpening sharpening taste exquisite smooth. Please taste the taste enough to ride cutlery.

    My limited edition Wacker definitely did, as did the DD's and W&B's I've bought. I havent bought a new blade in ages (other than to restore them), once I had the ones I liked the look of I just natually tapered off buying them.

    I never knew RAD died. From what I know, it can only subside for a while IF you stay on the boards. I have heard of some succesfully killing their AD but only at the price of not visiting any shave forums...

    RAD goes away until I see another W&B, that I know with some work will come right back to life...I've even narrowed my searches down to specific dollar ranges to try to limit, but then there they are, and next thing you know, another's in the mail, and that's fine with me.
