    Post Most popular size razor for SRP???

    After reading many of the posts in the group buy thread I was wondering what really is the most popular size of razor among our membership????
    My personal favorite is actually a 11/16 what's yours???

    I am only including sizes that I have actually seen on the outside of razor boxes.....

    My daily shaver is an 8/8 and I chose not to own anything under 6/8...
    I would guess that 5/8 and 6/8 are the most popular, just because of availability.

    And there are far more 5/8s than 6/8s.... My biggest is a 7/8 TI and it's my favorite size (so far). Like you, I stay above 6/8 with everything I use.

    All of mine are 5/8, with the exception of a 7/8+ Friodur.

    Most of mine are 5/8 and then 6/8 and I have one 7/8. I like the 6/8 the best.

    The majority of my collection is in the 6/8 - 8/8+ range......I love them all but 6/8-7/8 work very well for me and the 8/8+ shave great too but just look even sweeter

    Oh.... I voted 7/8

    Such a difficult choice... i started with 4/8 and 5/8.... then migrated to the heavier side 8/8+ but my go to razors are 13/16 and 7/8... if any razor i try just in not cutting the beard well i take up one of these. but lately when i have been taking the time to play with razors for myself i find the 4/8 wedges are stiff and light enough for anything and are quite nice to shave with... i really need several answers
    Be just and fear not.

    Mine mostly are 6/8's so I went that way. I have 2 nice 8/8's but I'm not in a position to count those as favorites, just don't get used all that much.

    I seem to favor 6/8 to 7/8 so I voted 13/16 of which I have one and that's right in the middle.
