Thread: How many razors do you own?

I've only been shaving with a straight for 1 month. Right now I have 3. One was bought to learn how to hone and one was bought to shave with since I chipped the first one. It's crazy but I look at straight razors on a daily basis to potential buy more. It's very addicting. I had 1 DE razor for 2 years and never wanted to purchase another.

11 at the moment, planning on a Dovo Ebinholtz in the near future.
My excuse to my wife is that I'm searching for the blade size, style, and steel that I like and when I find it I'll pare down to 3 of those. I'm not sure that she believes me since I said the same thing about the hundreds of wood chisels and gouges that I have.

I have 30-35. I've been trying to sell off one for every new one I acquire. I'm happy with that much variety. Beyond that I find that razors just end up sitting around waiting for their turn to be used.

14 and waiting on 2 more Bruno/Glen customs to be finished. Tc

To avoid this i separate them into small support groups. This way they don't feel left out.

6 - one of which doesn't count as it is a gold dollar that I just got to play around with, another of which I am just holding for a friend, so i own 4 actual razors but am in possession of 6.

At one time, 130,down to 10,all I will ever need.

182 razors at the moment. Hopefully increasing in the future. I am a collector and I use them all for shaving.

I have around 25 that I look at, molest, trim arm hair with and say, "oh ya!! That ones good!" and shave with. 15 or so on my work bench staring at me saying, " please make me pretty and sharp, I'll be a real good one and you know it!!"
