    Congrats you gents for having such nice razors there.

    I've had more than 7 but at some point i decided that 7 is well enough for me and sold the rest.

    Poor quick snaps but here they are:


    Usually they do not sit on the table but stand in their rack:


    In case i had to travel somewhere with my razors i made a simple insert for a cigar case:

    Right now I only have a picture of my 'box' of seven razors.

    Dovo Best Quality 6/8
    Revisor Seaman 6/8
    Wacker Jugendstil 7/8
    Wacker Antik 6/8
    Le Grelot 6/8
    Filarmonica #14 DT
    Wade & Butcher 6/8 (Max's Paua scales)

    I owe you the individual pics of every one in detail.
    The box is a seven days box from rasurpur.de.
    Problem is of course, that with room for seven in the box, any new symtom of RAD causes a space problem

    There are pictures comming up of a serious new acquisition.
    Have to sort out some camera issues first.

    Regards/vriendelijke groet,
    Paul

    Default Finally, down to my best 8 day rotation

    Ok, you've seen pics of my 'overall' start to my collection. Not included in the previous pictures where many of my actual 'daily' shavers. I have about 30 razors these days, but have come to the realization that I cannot get to know a razor when I only touch it once a month roughly. So I have narrowed it down to my favorites, and throw in a 'relief pitcher' every now and then.

    So, here it is, with a nice Halloween theme to go along with them.

    It can't compete with some of the beauties we have here, but here goes:

    In the last 2 pictures are the following:

    5/8 Dixon Improved Eagle in Burled Maple scales by Don Belanger
    9/16 Union Spike (one of my best shavers, I restored her)
    4/8 Friodur restored by gssixgun (Glen)
    7/8 DC Mike's HammeR Custom by Douglas Cutlery made for me by Doug! (thx Bishop)

    in the last pic:

    7/8 Puma 'My Darling' from an antique shop I restored
    5/8 Boker King Cutter from Lynn at SRD
    6/8 Genco Henry's XX that I restored from an ebay sale
    6/8 W&B Hollow Point in Crosscut Maple by Don Belanger - The DogBone razor

    Keep this thread alive!!!! I want to see more collections

    I Know, right??? As if I don't have RAD bad enough already, you see all these amazingly beautiful collections, and it kind of makes you feel like your own is just sorta, Meh! I keep thinking there is always one more thing I need to do. SO ..... Right now I'm working on collecting and restoring a 7 day set of Union Spike Razors. I have 4 now. RAD strikes again, hehehe.

    Let's keep em comin'!

    Best mate,
