I rinse with hot water after each use (in the razor), shake it, and set it in the medicine cabinet ready to go the next morning. After the 3rd shave it gets tossed. The fewer times it gets handled, the better. Str8s I dry off however.
I use a different razor everyday. I remove the blade, rinse it off, dry it with a towel and put it in the cabinet with a few small desiccant bags nearby to suck up any moisture. I also towel dry the razor. For a TTO I leave it open and I leave the 3 piece razors apart until the next morning. That way there is no chance for the blade to start to rust and stain my razors.
They put that on there because they don't want you to wipe the numbers off. That would be disastrous.
With my DEs and GEMs I rinse with hot water, disassemble and towel dry. I hand strop the blade and return it to the razor for the next shave. My Shicks, however, are just rinsed and remain in the razor until replaced. I have had no problems with rust. I only use stainless steel blades.
Stainless steel - don't leave a blade period. I have a Traders SB, blades develop rust in it. Happens a lot with Weber as well. Plated razor - never encountered any issues.
I always rinse my razors and blade with soap and a soft toothbrush and put the blade back in. There's never been a problem with rust or staining.
I've only had one non-carbon steel blade show any signs of rust leaving it in the razor - and that was in 3 days, so probably a defect with the blade itself.
After reading thease posts I did somthing I have never done. I got up and checked me Derby stainless blades and sure enough, rust. NEVER noticed it before. I use my blades until they wont cut hot butter. The current blade has been in about 2 weeks. Tonights lesson: Stainless does not mean rust proof. coated? maybe, I use derby stainless. gonna try a different brand next time and see what happens. By the way, I rinse me razor well after use, shake vigorously and hang on the stand to dry, and I shave at least once a day, twice if I go out in the evening. I grow facial hair akin to bigfoots hind end so if I go more than 2 days my razor clogs and takes forever and a fourth pass.
For most modern blades it won't be an issue to leave in the razor, because they will either be stainless or coated, but if you use a vintage carbon steel blade you will want to dry it off. I guess that with some modern blades where they are manufactured my play into it as well.
I suspect the savings in rust proofing your razor are gone from the electricity you use. I am a little conspiracy-minded... So I initially thought they put that disclaimer because they wanted your blade to rust. To make you buy them more often.
No, I know the diff. between hard water and rusy. (I have been merchant marine captain 23 years) my derby stainless blades do most definately rust. Not being ugly, just saying. Orange, redish rust.
I have never had a problem with blades rusting being left in the razor. Each of my razor's in my rotation always have a blade in them. Third time around or when i feel to much tugging i start replacing blades. But! if you have small children around that could get to the razor easily. You should prob remove them and put the blades in a place they cant reach them. That's probably a DUH fact but, hey people look past things like this all the time
