    Live, learn, change and learn again, and again, and again.....that's the way it should be.

    Sometimes an arsonal is just that - an arsonal .

    I began collecting straights with an eye to finding the few I liked best, then having gssixgun do his magic to them including making sure they would all have matching scales etc. I would sell off those that didn't "make the cut" (or give em to SRP for givaways).

    Before I could decide which I wanted to keep, i found that they all had their own attributes. As such, my OCD calmed and making sure they all had matching scales kind of went the way of the do-do.

    I have blades I haven't used in years... When I do get to one, I'll be glad I still have it in my arsonal .

    @earcutter... in case you ever decide to do more "give aways", I'll PM you my address! ha ha ha! And thanks again for the heads up on the Feather system. That thing is awesome for travel. Leaving for Florida tomorrow and it's already packed!

    @Aaron71... I was the same when I was using the Parker - did not like the shaves at all. The Feather system is totally different. Trust me, I LOVE the straight, but I needed something for travel. The Feather is as close as you can get to a straight. With that said, my straights are definitely better.
