    Default Now I can buy more razors

    I was running out of storage room for my own "rotation" (which may need to be called a collection soon...) but today I found the solution. I was out antiquing and one shop had razors in a roll. There was no price tag on the roll itself, so I asked if it was for sale. They called the actual vendor (I was at an antique mall) and I was told something like "He said: 'Well, I didn't intend to sell it, but I guess I will.' I told him you were really into razors. The price is $15, and it's 10% off."

    (It pays to antique. It pays to antique regularly - the woman who called the vendor recognized me when I walked in, and she likes me.)

    I have no idea if this was designed for razors, but it sure fits the bill. The slots are about the right size, and the strap thingies are elastic. Holds 25 per side, for a total of 50; did I mention it's huge? I guess 50 razors is my new limit...

    The inside feels like a cheap carpet, but it's very clean. The leather is very nice, soft/plush. The handle feels like a cheap suitcase. Whatever, it's a huge win.

    Turns out I wouldn't have been able to buy that many more razors anyway... the current count of "my" razors is 48.... I didn't realize I had so many...
