I only have old razors. I'm still just starting out but I think I can say that I will probably prefer old to new in the future. At the moment I can't afford a new anyway.

All but one of mine are old. I think there is much more variety with old razors.

My only "new" is one marked Solingen I bought at an Army Navy store in Boulder, CO over 30 years ago. With the help of this forum, I finally got it sharp enough to shave this spring. In the mean time, I picked up several truly old razors from Ebay. I've managed to get them all honed to shave sharp and no longer covet anything new.

All old razors for me. Although, I have been thinking of thinning the herd for either something NOS or custom.

Main razor? I use a rotation of old - and new ones.
