What are Your Razors? And What are the Top-5 ?

are all your others gone for good?

 

Since it looks like I'll (probably) never see Texas again, yup.

Edit: I should have explained...my bad...they're all safe & sound at my son's house. I'd given the entire collection to my middle grandson (oldest got my coin collection, youngest got my old coffee pots). It's just that Texas is being ate up with the coronavirus, and my daughter in law lost her grandmother to it. There were hard feelings when I left prior to the "lockdown", and when WHO announced "pandemic", I was seen as a threat to his family due to all my running around all over God's desert. The numbers there are crazy; where I'm at, there are only 19 reported cases and no deaths. I'm still running Texas plates on my car, on foreign soil, so I keep a low profile and try not to "stir the pudding", if you get my drift. But I can't risk going back.

 

i am sorry to hear.thankfully they are replaceable and you can pick out your absolute favorites..if you are going to stay minimalist and have just a couple.i would recommend i british new rfb 2 piece or 3 piece.my favorites out of the 70+ gillettes i have..they can be a little pricey,but you don't need to have a cased one.usually in the $100 range cased and decent.if i had to ditch my collection i would keep my rfb's..new sc is a close second.

 

Damn dude! That’s totally proeyish. I like the shaving chart on the inside of the cabinet.

 

Have purchased and sold many, here are my tops:

1st plance Mühle 2001 R41 & Cobra Classic

Joris DE

Rocnel-G (Gem blade)

Karve Bronze F plate open comb

Currently testing Janus Toggle

 

My 5 favorite safety razors in no order are:
Wolfman WR1 polished SS with Darwin handle
Apollo
Eclipse
Ever Ready GEM 1912
Raw 18

I had to leave a few off, but 5 is 5. I am not sure I really have a top 5, more like top 10. Any day, one of the other favorites could replace these.

Leaf? Are they legit then?

 

Sure, I love mine. It's my goto for head shave pick ups.

I have a few razors. I'm not going to write them out. Instead, I'll list my top 5 in terms of comfortable, efficient shaves. FYI: they're all vintage Gillette.

President
'34 Aristocrat
Diplomat
RFB 3 piece
RFB 2 piece

 

I've had ALL the fancy hardware, but really I'm happy with the simple stuff.

Schick Eversharp Krona
Pre WW2 tech
Merkur 34C
Standard Gillette Flare British or American
Many of my bakelite razors

What can I say simple does the job done nicely.
