oh yeah, this post is entitled 'thoughts about 7 day sets.'

My thoughts in general are yes they are great, especially the vintage heirlooms and modern day customs that Thiers Issard offer for example, however had I not been given one I doubt I would ever purchase a set. Perhaps if a seven day set was non identical and offered different grinds/points/sizes, but then it wouldn't be a set, rather a collection.

Generally I like variety and enjoy giving thought and choosing which razor I will use for my shave. There may be consistency between the grind I will select and the number of days growth I have accumulated.

In conclusion I believe that a seven day set can be desirable, but not preferable to having 7 different razors of different steel, grind etc; and would complement a rotation of other razors.

Thats my analogy at least. Some people like consistency. In terms of shaving I like diversity.
