    If you've joined here within the last two years like me....you think you have a few nice razors, then one of the old timers here will post a pic along the lines of, "funny you mentioned that....I just happen to have a few of those lying around", and post a pic with 10 or 15 stunning razors that were picked up for around $10-$20 a pop "back in the day"....

    They become available off and on. Seems like there are none and then there are a lot. Be patient

    I really have no idea how many I have. When I try to count them I stumble upon one that I have been looking for and get side tracked. To put it another way, I currently have over 200 vintage cameras and I think the SR's out number them.

    With my custom that arrived yesterday, I have 26. Although I love razors, I'm hoping that it will stop there. I have too many beautiful razors that I'd like to shave more frequently with as it is. I'm hoping to hone it down to about a dozen, so I could at least shave with each a couple times a month.

    There's an option missing: "not enough". Seriously tho, 21 to 30 on top of my head... I've given away the ones I didn't enjoy and chucked out the ones that were too damaged to be fixed. To put this in perspective, I have more suits than straight razors... and my job doesn't require me to wear a suit.

    Well, I'm not supposed to acknowledge the size of my collection...at least according to the moderator of my Thursday night 'RAD Anonymous Therapy Group'. He says that announcing the seriousness of the disease by actually counting and numbering my collection, would be self-congratulatory and therefore an affirmation that my RAD is not out of control.

    So without actually numbering them, and according to 'Wullie the Sage', more than 150 pounds worth based on a 3 ounce per razor rule of thumb!



    THANK GOD...you didn't ask about hones! That would really drive the moderator crazy at my Friday night meeting of my 'HAD Anonymous Therapy Group'!!!
