    Default My Little Collection

    It all started with my TI 5/8 "special coiffure" 5 months ago and yet I have 2 more in the mail, one still in resto mode and one hiding somewhere in the kitchen for touch ups this madness has to stop or I'll have to sell my kids....

    Nice start on a collection. You've been hooked and there is no hope for you! I agree with Hirlau, don't sell the kids, that's illegal. Trade them to Gypsies for more straight razors, that is just bartering.

    Wow, beautiful collection! I've come to expect when people say "my little collection" or "my humble collection" on SRP, what they really mean is "a lot of incredible blades to feast your eyes on".

    I have inspected each one and they are all delights!

    A very nice collection! Comparing the first and last pictures, I assume you did sell either your wife or children? Looks like you got a good deal

    Great set of blades. We dream about finding razors like that in this country!

    yup old solingen blades are rare here too my first find was my W&B wedge only by fluke when I decided to stop by an antique store on my way to work was a pleasure to restore and honestly what I paid for would make you sick.
