Thread: Your "Must Have" or "Dream Team" List

I've only been at this for a short time, but there are a few razors out there that I know will some day make their way into my collection. I'm sure there will be others along the way, but these are the ones that I know for sure I want to own one day. What are your "must have" or "dream" razors?

This is my list right now:
Wade & Butcher 9/8" Chopper (Celebrated or Barber's Use) - I love these razors. Plain and simple, this is my #1.
Hart Steel 7/8" Square Point - I just like the design and the modern simplicity of these, not to mention they get darn good reviews for how they shave.
6/8" or bigger Dubl Duck with Cracked Ice Scales - They get all the good press, and I've heard they shave like a dream, but most of the ones I see are small. There was a big 8/8 one on Ebay recently, but it wasn't in the budget at the time.
Filarmonica #14 - or another variation on their big 8/8 blade in square point. There must be a reason these are so well-liked, plus I would like to try a razor from Spain.
Iwasaki Kamisori - widely considered the best, so one day I'd like to try one-this is pending trying and liking a kamisori shave, of course, which should be some time in the next few weeks.
A Custom Razor - like the one I drew and posted in the Workshop here: http://straightrazorpalace.com/works...or-design.html

Found mine ;-)

Very nice pair!

Im a sucker for a nice pair :-) - Best of luck assembling your team - wouldn't mind a Hart myself.

I have all the razors I need (nothing really fancy). But if I ever have more money than I know what to do with , I would have a nice custom made . Mirror finish ,hollow ground ,smiling 6/8 blade , upper and lower jimps , long but not too long monkey tail , and ivory scales with silver pins .

Found mine also!

Unbeknownst to me, it was purchased by a bunch of my SRP friends who knew how much I loved it, and sent it back to me as a Christmas gift.

Not only is it the most beautiful razor I have ever seen, it is extra special because of the friendship it represents.

That's an AMAZING razor and a great story!!
