Well i only have two...though neither are Maestro Livi's (5/8" Torrey and 7/8" M.J. Higgins on its way to be honed). Unfortunately i dropped the Torrey recently and chipped the very tip. I think i would like to acquire 7 nice ones to make up a set (otto deutch hans, DD satinwedge, puma, 6 or 7/8" wacker are on the list). Has anyone used a Wacker razor from the shavingshop...they look amazing?!

Six arrived today. I'm not sure what the total count is, but suspect it's around 25.
