Thread: To use or not to use

I use everything I have. What is the point in not using a razor? Eventually you will die and (more than likely) no one else will care about your razors. Why not enjoy them?

As far as taking care of them...I just dry them after use and strop them. That's it. It's awfully hard to wear out a razor.

Use them all - maybe save for a special occasion as others do.
Rather focus on keeping it clean and dry - with a little oil if needed and you will have something that's functional and looks good too - for may years

I say use it. I have some beautiful razors that I use Ren wax on Picreator Enterprises LTD | Renaissanceâ„¢ Wax works as a barrier and keeps them in tip top condition.

The truth will set you free. Who are you saving it for? I have to agree with this fine gentleman. I am 72 and I save nothing for no one. I procure such and such for my pleasure, should someone garner from my tid bits after my expiration date arrives, then great. But for now, my procurements are for me and my enjoyment. If you wish to save for someone else then start an investment plan, or something that will be of a benefit to the heir.

I agree with what the others have said, use it and enjoy. There is only 1 razor in my collection that doesn't get used...for now. My father-in-law gave me a razor many years ago, I had Glenn restore it and shaved with it one time. Now it sits in a safe waiting for my son to grow up. When the time comes my son will have his great-great grandfather's razor.

The hair dryer scares me with warping the scales...

A couple razors are prone to getting thier pivot wet and will typically wrap a pieces of toilet paper when shaving to mop up any errant soap and water.

Don't let the razor keep you in suspense and always wondering what it would be like.
Use it and thoroughly enjoy!

Use it. Clean it properly and put it away. Then use it again. Unless your going to put it in its own display case on the wall. Then it had better be like a one of a kind. Did i say use it yet?
