    Oh - if they knew my insanities they would question it long before they hit that point

    You guys are too much...LMAO!
    Strangely enough, I was just considering the best way to come up with a rotation. I have 18 razors now and don't want anyone being left out...(kinda strange, like they have feelings or something)

    Intelligent Razor Rotation? I have enough trouble trying to shave with each razor once a year! If I were to try and put some intelligence behind the rotation I would never get to shave with any of them or I would need a Dewey Decimal system for cataloging and storing the razors so it is easy to find a particular one. Then I would need to track when each was last used and ... My head hurts already. Be sure to have fun with your rotation.

    There is a cure, Joe. I'll send you my address so I can help you work through the rotation.

    I always wonder what it would've been like living 100 years ago, where a man only had one razor. My friend (he's my parent's age 60+) inherited his grandfather's razor and he has been shaving with it his whole life. It's the only razor his gfather had and it's my friends only razor too. However, I bought some razors that belonged to a local man from Eastern, MA. The man was born in 1872 and died before 1940. He had a bunch of razors of several different sizes and shapes...so he wasn't exactly particular to any kind. One thing I must say, though, is that when he could, he bought local. One of the razors is a Holzaur that was made in Germany, but it says Troy, New York (only a couple miles from where I live). And, one is from Schenectady and another identifies itself a Kahnweiller from New York. I looked them up and they resided in Albany, New York too.

    An intelligent razor rotation is any comprised without cartridges.

    I think it too...
    Some of them are better, and are worse, but for some reason I like them all...

    Yeah...I must agree, I like most of mine too. Lately, I have been gravitating to a couple that seem to shave without any irritation whatsoever. Now, if I could just figure out if it is my honing or the razor itself I would be all set.

    I really like this thread. I started with just one of these things, then found antique stores. Here is my problem with rotation... I found a pack that will hold 5 razors so I am trying to figure out how to maximize this one and having a lot of trouble trying to figure out just which razors to include in my 5 day rotation. Very frustrating... Now I find there are 30 razor packs so I can stretch my set a bit if I can find one of those...
    Now here is the problem... Thirty days hath September, April, June, and November; All the rest have thirty-one, Save February, with twenty-eight days clear, And twenty-nine each leap year.
    So what do I do for the months that have 31 days and a strange month like Februrary that can't quite make it mind up?
