    Unless a razor was a gift or handed down, they are all fair game.

    The only razor that I have that fits that description is a Winchester straight that a friend of mine bought for me at auction. He spent way too much for it, and I sent it off to get restored... When the fine gentleman that restored it for me told me:

    "I wish I had a good enough friend to spend $XXX on a razor for me, and I wish I had a good enough friend who'd pay to try to salvage it... I wouldn't feel right charging you what it's worth, so just send me $50." There's never been a picture of it, there's never been a revelation of who restored it, and there never will be. It's a family heirloom that my children already know about. All told, that's easily the most money ever put into a razor that's probably worth $50... But, it's a valuable razor to me.

    PS. It does shave very well, too...

    Well... I'm kind of a newbie, having been shaving with a SR for a few months now. But, ah, I'm addicted and have five razors. My favorite is a TI 6/8 with a very nice decorated back. It's heavy to the hand and has some heft. I wouldn't want to get rid of this one.

    It goes to show that there are formus like this where not everyone want to simply put you down and say they cn do better, or insult you for no reason, as i find other sites consist of, namely youtube.

    Well, I've already sold off most of my collection & favorite razors that I thought I'd never sell. I guess I'm a fickle bugger & don't have much emotional attachment to 'things'.

    I'm down to 5 western razors & 2 kamisori, I may yet part with some of those, however, I would really have to be strapped for cash to part with my Iwasaki Kamisori... & I'll probably never sell my Ho... Hang on I better add a pic
