How many razors in a rotation is too many razors in a rotation?

How many razors make up an intimate rotation, however, is certainly open to debate.

For me I have 7 razors that I use now. The rest I have in my razor box. I am putting together a Wade & Butcher 7 day set now. I want to have each one with a different blade design ie. chopper, French point, etc

I just got my rotation down to 30, most of which will be there permanently.

i really dont know. more than 50 less than 100 . i have thought long and hard abought thinning the herd but even my most humble and plain no name razor gives a great shave. some i use more than others so maybe if backed in a corner i could go down to say 10. may the day never come

You can never be too rich, too thin, too young, or have too many razors in your rotation.

Currently about 80ish in active rotation but it is always growing as I fiddle with a new dress or something. I just took out the geneva for a wenge dress that is drying as we speak.

I have seven. Few years ago i had almost twenty but then i figured that 7 is enough.

I have 8, & came to the conclusion that this is too many for me. I'm a rational guy. I don't shave every day (sensitive skin and wife likes scruff). I realize that it would take me a whole month to get through that rotation, so I'm gonna thin the herd down to my best/favorite shavers (4 vintage heirlooms). I like shaving, but it's not the center of my world.

Hmmmm I don't know what the right answer is but I can tell you if the wife reads this and gets the idea that I have to many, some of you guys are off my Christmas list for life :p

220-221 Whatever it takes........................:w
