    Yes. I shave exclusively with a straight razor and have since I started...after the first month, I threw all the other Gillette junk away.

    I think more than a couple folks here have a 7-day set, but I most have much more than 7 My opinion on 7-day sets is why not make one of various makers...something like this:

    1 Wacker
    1 Dovo
    1 TI
    1 Revisor
    3 Vintage

    But why limit yourself...

    I too am an every day user. I actually look forward to shaving after my shower. It's an enjoyable part of the morning ritual.

    I do not however have a 7 day set. I could only afford to start with two razors, but tend to use one more than the other. No particular reason as they both provide wonderful shaves.

    I shave with a straight 7 days a week. Every now and then if I'm in a hurry I'll cheat with a DE though.

    I don't have a 7 day set. I never had an interest in having 7 of one razor when there are so many great different razors to use.

    Seven days a week unless I feel like "bumming" around the house. I'm with THEBIGSPENDUR, no interest in a 7-day set. Variety is nice, but I'm not going to say that I wouldn't pick up a set if the price was right some day...just wouldn't use it exclusively.

    I've only been straight shaving for about a week, but this morning I confirmed my rule against shaving after coffee. On days I work at 4:30 am, I certainly don't shower or shave before work, and I think I'll be sticking to the DE on the days when I'm sleep deprived and over-caffeinated by the time I get to shave. (Nothing terrible happened this morning, just gave myself a few nicks and nothing resembling a close shave.)

    Yep, every day, seven days a week..! I love it, its the best way to start a day in my opinion!

    The only time I dont is if I'm in a rush. Then I will cheat and use a DE.

    I do sometimes give my face a day or two's rest over the weekend, but I will usually shave on Sunday morning if I dont on the Saturday. I only leave it the whole weekend if I'm being really lazy!

    I shave 6 to 7 days a week with a straight... I have to admit that I am even getting up earlier just for that nowadays.
