How many razors ?

[Scubasteve]

I am curious how many razors people own in their collection ?

 

[MntnMan62]

32 double edge razors and one straight edge. Cartridges and electrics don't count.

 

[R181]

At a guess, somewhere between 40-50 DEs, SEs and straight razors.

I don't know. I'll be getting them all together in a chest that I'm repairing and refinishing and then I'll be able to see what I have and put together some interesting rotations. I'll organize my soaps and blades and other things too. I've not kept up with things it seems, too many projects!

I have around 20 Razors gads! My go to razors are the Game Changer 0.68, Yuma & Viking Cheiftain. These 3 give me a fine close shave every time.

Wow that is a lot of razor! Does anyone buy used?

Just doing the math and looks like a lot of cash...just curious

Most of mine are used vintage razors found on the bay. I have some new ones as well. The vintage razors made sense early on because some of them can be had relatively cheap. Old Types, NEWs, Techs. Those are pretty plentiful. And lately it seems like there are more razors being listed for sale so holding out for price is easier.

About 110 DEs, SEs and straights, which are both old and modern. Straights are Victorian, and the last razor I bought a few weeks ago is an EJ 3One6.

5 razors currently. More than enough but always room if I find something I really like.

 

[DamianJ]

I've currently got 6 razors

I’ve got 20-ish, actually use 3 or 4, could easily live with just 2.

just one : the merkur 34c , but just ordered the ming shi 2000s ( a merkur futur clone ) to see how it feels to shave with an agressive razor , if this feels ok , I will buy the original futur in the near future what razor do you own yourself?

I only use my R41 and Karve OC E plate heads on my own handles, and occasionally a MMOC or MMCP or 1912. I probably have 8-10 other razors which I would get rid of if anybody actually bought such razors on the BST, which so far they haven't.

31 x DEs (6 vintage), 6 x SEs (2 vintage). I've still yet to use my SEs and 13 of those DEs.

I started properly wet shaving in January this year so the collection began then. The curse of overly enthusiastic acquisition!

Don't get me started on soaps and brushes....

I think I have around 20? I seem to use a Ball End Tech 90% of the time.
