Was just one only last week, i told you they multiply. With three empty spots in that rack. Your jonesin' bad. Better get it together man. AN INTERVENTION MAY BE NEEDED HERE.
I didn't mean to imply i had more than anyone else . I meant that i had one more than i had before. They just seem to multiply.
Now that you mention it...SR collecting is very different from DE collecting. I found with DE or SE collecting that once I had a good example of a particular type of razor, I didn't feel the need to buy a second if I found one in an antique store...I always felt I should leave it for the next guy who may be looking for that razor to fill out his collection. With SRs however, I find it easier to find them in antique stores and every razor seems to be different in some way...and even if you find a duplicate there is such a wide variation in quality.
Ok, when i reread mine it sounded like a brag, that wasnt my intention. They just seem to grow in number,maybe they are tribbles.
When I say how many I own or have recently purchased and are in the mail...I am not bragging...I see it more like confessing. What is about SRs that make them so hard to resist?
I really don't know! I can still get a better shave from my Futur, but I persist with SR! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Give it time my friend...once you get your technique dialed in, that DE will become a thing of the past...lol. I hope your journey had been fun so far.
I have been using a straight for only a short while now, but I agree with your comment...it feels so comfortable.
7 currently in my rotation. 2 going out to be honed and added to the rotation. 1 that needs more clean up before it can go out for honing. 2 that need scales made for them before they can be honed.
Inspired by @Bjoerge Brathagen I just added new razors, Dorko, 2 J West(1 frame back) and 2 TI(one frame back). I will then have a completion to see who stays and who goes and thin the heard back down to 12. Pics will be coming in the straight razor of the day thread and 30 day thread. 3 of the razors arrived and need to honed.
