Low 11-100 but growing. I can't stop hitting flea markets at the moment either.

Hmmmmm I don't count non-shave ready razors....I have a ton of those sitting around probably close to 100 in drawers, in boxes, I sharpen a few now and then for the giveaways...
Shave ready I have managed to bump back up to a 9 week rotation
so 63, I was down to 52 just a few months ago, trying for 49, I swear they talk to me...
BTW all you guys doing the 7, 14, 21, razor thing, it doesn't work, I was all the way to 77 before I started cutting them back....

I don't know about doesn't work. I've been on here for over a year, and I'm still holding (for the moment) to 14. It was around a year (I think) before I bumped up above 7. Originally Posted by gssixgun

if someone owned that many finely honed razors and did have a beard i'd be dissapointed . You have a keen eye for both nice razors and stone I must say

Yes it does! lol Once you get a bunch of reeeeeally nice and rare razors the rest start to pale in comparison! Glen just has no self-control! Originally Posted by gssixgun

Now that I've been working on my 7-day set, I actually will start selling razors but first I have to buy a camera.

I have 11 in my rotation right now. I have a Robeson in the mail. I have a #14 Filly BD on the way from South America somewhere, I have a Gold Bug and a Genco Easy Aces waiting for a restore by Max. I have a TI Frameback on the way from Gugi.
How many is that?
EDIT: Jesus I forgot I also have a Joseph Elliot and a Puma 5/8 on the way, too. I'm taking a break from razor buying.Last edited by Oglethorpe; 07-22-2009 at 07:22 PM.
