    I've got a few 7 day sets that came off of ebay. Two I never have used as they are vintage and mint, while one was used/excellent condition and I've shaved with that. Mine are all Solingen but one of these days I'll hit on a nice vintage Sheffield set. If I had the $ I'd go for a TI set of maybe Spartacus with natural scales and a barber's notch. As for the variety, besides the set there is plenty of room for individual razors. Good luck on the set, hope you get what it is you're looking for.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    For over two years I have been getting a 7 day set togather.My guidelines were 1 look good and be in excellent+ condition 2 be a known fine shaver 3 not break the bank in price. The razor I chose is the Genco Easy Aces. I now have five of them and am still looking for the last two. The catch is the excellent condition rule. The plan is to have the days of week lazer etched on the front blade face. Be patient and it will come togather with time. Very Best Regards, John

    Hi Guys,

    I am kind of new to the SR - why 7days set is needed? Can't you shave everyday with the same razor?

    Sorry if this is a stupid question....

    Not a stupid question at all. I think that in the case of a 7 day set, some guys would like to just have one. The razors are identical except for the day of the week markings and should all shave about the same. Some might consider it a status symbol, whilst other enjoy it for what it represents. Most are nicely cased and beautiful to behold.

    As for "needing" one? That is entirely up the man that buys/owns or doesn't buy/owns personal preference I'd think.
