    I like to make things with Paracord and this is my latest. I wanted to make something that I could use to keep track of the number of shaves per blade. I never go over 5 shaves per blade, so I made my counter with 5 sliding knots. I simply slide one knot up for each shave and when I reach 5, it's time for a new blade. I grab a new blade, slide all of the knots down and I'm ready to start again.

    I would like to offer these to my fellow shavers. I'm not selling them, simply giving them away. With that said, the material cost and postage are coming out of my pocket, so if anyone would like to make a donation toward the cost of these, you can send it via Paypal.

    A donation is NOT required, but would be appreciated. Send whatever you want.

    If you would like more than or less than 5 knots, let me know how many. Include that info in the PM you send with your address. I will reply to any and all PM's and I'll include my Paypal address with each reply in case you wish to help cover some of the cost.

    If I have posted this in the wrong section or if this violates any forum rules, please take whatever action is necessary.

    Reminds me of the pace counters we had, back as a G.I.

    I would need about 6 with labels to keep track of the razors in rotation. I can keep track of one razor ok even in my addled state.

    I based it on the Ranger Pace counters that I make.

    Now that I've seen it I think I can make it, but I would never have conceived of if if you hadn't posted this. Thanks.

    Really nice idea. Unfortunately I spend my life "counting beans" so I'm not counting my shaves.
