should I leave my collection to members of TSD, then you could use them, they wouldn't get thrown away and you might remember me for eternity. Mind you, at the moment I've only got one razor worth talking about. Got my eye on lots though!
Well. Considering you are 53 and I pray nothing serious wrong with you, I'm also 53 so I understand the struggles we begin at our age I think you'll have plenty more time to acquire and to figure out who you would like to leave your collection of razors to. In the meantime enjoy what you have. Kerry
NO....give to a son, if you dont have one and only a daughter/s (like me), then give to her, she may have a son one day....if no kids then I would say give to a friend/nephew/family...and you have been posting on the internet, you will be remembered for the rest of time around here.
First: please stay with your loved ones for a long time! B: I agree with Iduck: keep them in the family if you can 3: adopt me.
My post may have seemed a bit morbid. It was meant to be quite a light hearted post and after reading through, a little while later, it probably sounded much better in my head than it appeared on page. They often do. Number three, that's funny.
I'm hoping to clear out my collection afore'n I shuffle off this mortal coil. Whatever remains of it shall be bequeathed to my three bearded sons...
Nah. Not morbid. Don't we all wonder sometimes about what will happen with our favourite things when we're not here anymore?
Send me that one razor and I'll start remembering you now, and you won't have to die (yet) !!! Win/win for both of us!
Very kind and generous. As you acquire new razors, shall we post which ones we like so our names can be added to the will?
Request to be burried with them and picture instructions for use, then long after WWIII or the apocolypse you'll be dug up by alien bearded colonists who have never thought of shaving. The women will love their clean shaved men, the men will love their fully shaved women and they'll build monuments to you, Lorde DangerMouse! YMMV
Depends... If I know I'm gonna die, ID start clearing out all my stuff except for the stuff I truly care about, like 4 or 5 razors, and a few soaps and aftershaves, and pass those on to someone. If I had a son, that'd be his. But we aren't planning kids, and my brother doesn't shave, and he doesn't have kids.... and I don't think my father will outlive me... So I actually have no idea who to give it to. I guess I'd ask my wife to keep those things I truly cared about as a remembrance of me. They wouldn't take up much room. If I just dies one day... Well, I guess my wife would have to eBay it all. I don't think she knows how to come on here and do lots or gentlemanly deals, etc. Maybe she would remember which razors and stuff I liked the best and keep a few.
I am willing to be on your will. Or anyone that have a lot ( more than one, of course ) razors. Pick me... Come on.. Me..
Danger, this can be a difficult decision. Why not find an attorney in our group and make them your "Razor Executor" to handle everything?
The good die young so I figure I have some longevity left. In my case I have a son, son in law, and two grandsons that I will divvy up my collection. At a minimum each will get a 40's Super Speed, a Red Tip, Tech and a NEW SC or LC. The remaining lot which holds my most prized Old Types and other vintage Gillette's will go to those that show and inclination to use them. Currently one grandson and son in law do. I'm currently in progress with my son in law. From Dollar Shave Club to Trac II, to a shave stick, now bowl lathering and ready to jump to a Super Speed.
I have given email addresses of a few people to my wife for both my shave gear and my leatherworking tools. I would hate for her to sell them off for what I told her I paid for them.
