Longest I have is 3 1/4 and I have to pay attention to avoid slicing my ear or nostril.
Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

This ugly brute is 3" 3/8ths. It was slightly longer before the postman dropped it. Haven't been able to face doing anything with it yet!

It's not the length that matters. It's how well you use it.

I have a Chandler Wootz with a 3.25" blade, an extended shank and a spike point. Think pure thoughts, plan your strokes or pay with blood. Did I mention that this particular razor is at least as sharp as a Feather?
What a shaver!

That's a big un Sham.
One of my John Barber's has a 3.25" cutting length.“The white gleam of swords, not the black ink of books, clears doubts and uncertainties and bleak outlooks.”

Got a 3.25 W&B blade that I'm cleaning up now and will put into some horn scales later this month. It's a frameback (haven't seen any W&B framebacks) and it seems to be in darned near perfect shape. Hopefully after I get her a little cleaner and scaled, it'll hone up to a nice shaver. I am a little concerned that I may slice my ear lobes a bit until I get used to it. As soon as it's scaled I'll post some pics of her. I think she may slide into that most favorite slot.

Yeah, that's what all the guys with the mini-razors say.

Maybe the mrs. even tells you so, but we all know that deep down in her heart her biggest desire is to have a big instrument to go up and down her legs.
Alright, it's weekend!
