    Default My Projects for the Next 20 Years

    I have approximtely 32 razors. On the big picture for ideas. The left side and the bottom of the second column from the left are sheffield blades of various brands. The botttom of the second column is the heavy grind Wade and Butcher, I think its a 1/4 hollow and its 6/8. The others are hollow grinds. The top of the second column to the space are solingen blades of various makes. There is also a swedish made von cleft razor that is 11/16 and hollow ground but its on the last pic, it has a lot of stains. The third column is made of all made in Germany and if various brands. The last column is American blades and the very bottom are shavettes and no name blades. The shavettes are free to a good home, but you must take all of them and the sculptor and pay the shipping. If anyone is interested in one, feel free to let me know. A few people have messaged me and asked what I have and I want people to know that I have a long way to go before I join the Pros on this site (i figure in 4 years). I have a feeling its going to take a long time for me to get to all these but I look forward to the labor because it brings me a lot of pleasure when I get to shave with one. I have more wade and butchers than these but they are not restored, and I use them every day until I have time to restore them. I hope some people will look at these and tell me I don't need to check myself into a mental hospital. I have just had so much fun using these things and now I have friends at work asking about them. Thanks to all the people who have left criticism and comments since I joined the site, it has really helped me in learning what quality means.
    Best Wishes

    That doesnt seem necessary as there is no cure for the razor acquisition and restoration disorders.

    That said, reading the post about razor photography might be a good idea.

    Quit web surfing and get to work on those blades ! Nice stuff you have there. Good luck with it.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.
