What would you do? Check out the one on second row all the way left

The smiler in the middle of that row isn’t too shabby either. You sure do seem to like bigger blades.

That is quite an amazing collection. I agree with the folks who suggest sending it off to someone who will appreciate them at a fair price. That price should be substantial given the nature of the collection and the condition of the blades.

Thank you for the observation about storing razors using camellia oil for almost 20 years. There has been some discussion about the best long term storage of razors and it’s extremely important to have direct observational evidence that compares two possible strategies.

I would want to eventually rescale all of them, but it sounds like that isn't what you want to do. I think Randydance made. A good suggestion about choosing the ones you really liked and selling the rest. Selling the largest blades separately and others in smaller lots would probably be the most practical solution. Please keep us updated. I'm sure plenty of us are interested.

Some chomping at the bit. Some...
