    Thank God I am not so far gone with RAD that I have to weigh them!

    The easy road is rarely rewarding.

    I could see the razor habit overtaking the watches. But if it overtakes the guns, that would be a truly impressive collection.
    First off, this ex USN Hospital Corpsman (the p is silent) would like to say thank you for your service. My razor collection is nowhere near overtaking my firearm collection

    I have one, but you, as a marine and a local, would be much better served with it.
    No charge, naturally, it would be my pleasure!
    You sir are a class act!

    That would be me. I've bid on about 30 razors on ebay over the last 6 months and this is the first I've won.
    It shipped from Tucson, really fast. It is waiting for me to pick up, but unfortunately I cant get to the PO till Friday.

    Birnando -- Awesome razor! Your generosity is amazing.
    I have a few shave related items that I don't need already. Now, I know what to do with them.

    That's a great idea Pheonix51. You must have incredible willpower.

    I just decided that I needed 2 for home and 2 for work. No more, now one of my work razors has been given away but I have 3 at home as i am looking after one for a friend, i struggle to use 2 of the 3 I have at home and one seems to be enough for work, so in theory 3 would do me.
