    Maybe someone will start a Razors Anonymous!!
    I looked for an address for Razors Anonymous, couldn't find one. Tried for a phone number, unlisted.

    I've only been into shaving as a hobby for just under 4 months. Got my first DE from my Son for Father's Day this year.

    I'm like a virgin that finally.....well you know..... and now just can't get enough. It doesn't help I have an addictive personality.

    23 DE
    2 shave ready SR
    13 project SR
    So I guess 38.

    Oh wait, are we counting purchased and not yet received in the mail? Hahaha

    Six currently in the rotation, 8-9 that will be in the rotation when I get them cleaned up/ repaired / honed. And the rest will be used as my guinea pigs to learn on before messing around with the nicer vintages that I plan on keeping. So right now about 24 total

    You boys are going about it all wrong.

    Tell your wives how many POUNDS of razors you have rather than the NUMBER of razors.

    5 lbs is a LOT of razors but it doesn't sound like it when you answer her question with "only FIVE dear."

    My wife knows better but she doesn't care as long as I use at least one of 'em on a regular basis.

    She didn't bat an eye when I told her I had 34 more razors coming in that I'd gotten a trade.

    She just wanted to know if I FINALLY had enough junkers to make her a wind chime out of old blades.

    Got to thank BRUCE for that idea.

    Tell her you'd give them all up but they keep you out of the bars and away from strippers

    All of this has just made me jealous... and worried that when I have more money, they'll be no more straights because they've been hoarded up by the likes of all you folks. Thanks for the poll - very interesting!
