    Default 6 months in... too much?

    My rad has slowed down finally in the past month I've only bought one razor! It got a little out of hand for a while. Now that I've bought stones hopefully I can learn more now lol.

    That one third to the right looks quite interesting, with the green pointed scales.
    And is that one in the middle ivory or very polished bone?

    What kind of blades do you have?

    Great collection..... I am a believer in Quality vs Quantity........looks like you have 18? Do you like that amount and do you get to enjoy all?

    Two beautiful vintage Escher stones for me, 12.5 x 2.5 each, old wooden box, labels and all. One a dark black grey, the other yellow streaked. Going to be my new refreshing routine I'm supposing, some laps on the Nani 12k, and then the butter, velvet edge on the Escher. So I'm now working in tandem with just finishing off, for now, with BAD and RAD, and still maintaining a good run with HAD and SAD.

    Damn. Had to say something. I've just gotten my Norton combo set and a chosera 1k as well. And a Hibbard Spencer Bartlett barbers hone which matches my two HSB razors. All three OVB model. I was excited about that lol

    So that's 4 stones in about a month. Could be worse

    It doesn't seem that your razors need those hones, but nobody needs 18 razors for just shaving either
