I'm really not a fan either, they're a bit too in your face for me. I'm no fan of razors with their grind etched on either. I do quite like the old school engravings though - I think they have a bit more about them.
I doubt I will ever buy a gold wash glad dovo - vintage for me.
I love bling bling.. I even have diamonds on my hones...

I thought I was in a minority in not liking gold on blades. Seems not. Having said that, you're making me chuckle, gugi.
I agree my gold belongs in my vault not on my blades. And because have neither vault nor gold I don't want to waste it on flashy bling bling razors
I hate gold on razors. The few I have that have it, as soon as it starts to show the slightest signs of wear I take it all off. Even worse than that is a Dorko I have which has green all over the entire blade. Yuk.
I feel your pain and stand ready to assist. Please feel free to dump all gold chased razors on my door step or into my mail box at any time.
I have to say the bling appeals a bit to me as well. :)
