Thread: Ideas

Picked up all these in the last couple of weeks, and need ideas of how to get them on to my shelf in my study without my SWMBO noticing. They will basically double my collection. As I work from home it means I get can intercept the mail before she does.

Also how do you curb RAD. I promised myself I would keep it to not more than one a month, but they just made so many razors in Sheffield, and the boxes just keep appearing!!

By the way the second one I got for the scales. I plan on using them on another razor. Unless that blade can be saved?

the one on the second pic is a letter opener ,the frown is too much to fix and have usable blade to shave with.
as for your question, well use imagination...

Nice razors! There is no cure for RAD. Forget about displaying them and just take them out when it's safe. Do note that the spacing between the pin holes can vary as well as the length and with of the scales. Good luck getting the scales from pic 2 into the other razor.

Found that out the hard way. I got that razor to replace the scales on the humpback Wade & Butcher and they don't fit. Means I have to find another one to use those on, and another donor razor for the Wade & Butcher, More collecting!

You gotta spread them around the house so they don't lokk like altot.. Think alcholics hiding bottles..

Make sure your wife does not see all the collection at once, and that she never knows what kinds of razors you have. Rotating razors from a stash into the numbers known to your significant other will be unnoticed, unless they are making you to sign in which razor you are using each time
To avoid the RAD, it helps to stop visiting e-bay or any sites that sell razors.
Looking a pics here on SRP is not quite enabling IME.

The only sure fire way to curb RAD that I have found so far is to lose your job and be unemployed for three years. Now that I'm working again, the itch is returning in a big way.
