I never get stranded on a desert island having all my accoutrements , but that's just me !

What's the question, which one of your favorite razors is the one that you can lose or get stolen...or worse? I don't got one of those.

So I'm gonna pack a razor because I know I'm going to get shipwrecked

Would hafta be a DE & a box of feather blades.

I should find a Wilson razor!

I'd go with a Challenge Razor because they tend to be cheap, shave extremely well, and really hold their edge.
For opening coconuts perhaps one of those Kriegar RSOs so that I could complain that it wouldn't even cut coconut.

If I'm by myself on a deserted island..... I'm gonna grow a beard. Whatever I have that's sharp, or can be sharpened, will be saved for survival tasks. Besides, shaving without one's favorite cream or soap would be pretty dismal... might as well save up the shaving desire for when I get rescued!

Now, if the question was "if I could only have one razor, and the gear to maintain it, while living in Canada, what would it be?"..... there could only be one answer from this ex viking:



That is one sweet looking razor, and one I may well have to spring for, before I pass on.

Well it depends. I have taken many trips with my razors. I like to take a pair of friodurs with me to work. I have taken an old beaten up Wade and Butcher on a couple of trips and when I went to Costa Rica I took my sextoblade and non of those times did i get shipwrecked. Thank goodness for that. I often pack something that is not to dear for trips. I'd hate to loose something valuable. I do not own a razor that has a substandard shave. If I did I might take it in the hopes that I would loose it.

For continual salt water exposure (over a short time on a sailboat) I would take my Sears Roebuck Stainless.

I agree with Ed. Nothing short of Aaron's cleaver would be of much use on a coconut.

If I get stranded on a deserted island I wouldn't shave and look wild and badass .

If I'm stranded on a deserted island I want one of my BEST razors just in case a good looking girl on a homemade raft lands on my beach.

I'd just go wild an just so the natives don't mistake me for a stranded girl!!!!!! Tc
