Thread: why do people use razor for each day of week

See 7 days of the week 7 razor set I like that, and I like well rested razors wouldn't want them to get tired ya know...

Now it also is the best excuse for RAD too, because every time you get one razor, you have to buy 6 more to keep in multples of 7 RIGHT ????

I now have 77 shave ready razors, OCD mixed with RAD

And I just bought one new razor

In the old days a well heeled gentleman wouldn't be caught dead without a seven day set, usually with ivory scales and the very wealth with sterling silver scales. Kind of like owning a Rolex watch now.

the sterling would have to be just for prestige, cause I imagine those handles would make for a hell of a balance problem.

Well aren't all the ornate aspects of razors just for show? So long as the blade shaves well (and you can shave with it), the rest is unimportant.

I like having lots of different kinds of razors because they each give a different shave. Some I like more than others. I'm going to pick the seven best after I'm all finished restoring, and put the rest in a shadow box.

Holli, I disagree, everybody knows, or at least wives should, that different handle materials balance differently depending on atmospheric conditions and because of wood variance sometimes fancy inlays, spacers and pins are needed to compensate.

I feel safe to say it in this group, I'm obsessed. I need to try every razor I see. I stay up at night thinking that some razor I saw in SOTD, or in some other post *must* shave better than every razor I have. So far I'm right, every shave has been better than the last. Couldn't be the technique, it's got to be the razor <g>
