    Default Oldest Razor in Your Shaving Rotation?

    I've recently enjoyed shaving with what I call my "Board of Elders." These are more vintage razors that I set aside for "someday when I learn to hone." Well, someday has come, and I've enjoyed seeing these old razors come to life in response to my touch on the hones.

    I don't know the exact ages, but all are likely 75 or more years old. What we have here are, L-R, very familiar warhorses:

    • Wostenholm IXL
    • Dubl Duck Gold Edge, my first "restoration" razor
    • Robeson Shur Edge-amazing blade!
    • Yankee Cutlery Lion-professionally honed, ruined by me, rehoned by me
    • Dubl Duck Special Wedge #1


    So...what's the oldest razor you regularly shave with? I imagine some of you guys have some genuine Senior blades!

    Just shows that the right strokes can keep the oldest guy sharp!
