    Default 7 Day Rotation?

    Does anyone else have a 7 Day (or more), rotation but find they go to a favorite more often then actually running through the rotation?

    For me I find my 7/8 W&B India Steel just feels better then the others.

    Some razors in my rotation see more use than others, depending on how I feel that morning. I bet, averaged out, they all get their due

    A year from now, you'll wish you had started today.

    I have a NOS Wosty 7 day set, ( well, they were NOS until I honed them up ) that I use from time to time, but usually I just grab one of my Henckels or a Boker. Staying with the same seven razors all the time "dulls" the mind, as well as the blade. LOL Very Best, John

    I keep an Excel spreadsheet of all my razors. 23 at the moment. Just got done redoing a rotation that starts from first razor purchased to last. I keep track of the date purchased and photos of each and any restoration work with after photos...it's pretty huge right now at 62.5MB's...LOL

    I've tried all kinds of rotation systems over the years. These days I just use whatever strikes my fancy and usually use it for a week or so and then move on to something else.

    I think this is likely what I'll end up doing.

    I have a small collection of Hart Steel razors that I use and rotate one per day - works for me.
