My ever growing collection. Pics.

Not nearly as many as some, but a good "start". I had to buy bigger box yesterday as it's obvious the collection will be growing. It's cedar and I will be constructing removeable cedar trays so I can stack'em up.

Very nice. What's the round point in the middle row on the top? TI?

I wish. Nope it's that darned Sansouccie(sp?). Shaves good, just not a great manufacturer's finish. TI's aren't in the budget for a while lol.

Nice collection! I am a mildly surprised you don't have Bismarck in there, since all the larger collections seem to have one. I also think it is time for you to take a foray into Kamisori!!

What do you use for rust prevention?

Actually, the Bismarck was one of the first straights I wanted when I just started out, but at the time lack of money wouldn't allow it. Now I can find I can live without it. The kamisoris are a different story. They have been calling to me in a very loud "voice" lately. It's hard to decide when you want everything. Using Rem oil for rust prevention for now.

Nice collection there!

...So what's your favorite?

Nice collection. Do you use them all?

I have two that I go to regularly The Boker with the black scales and ivory/celluloid(?) covered tang and the Morris Red Imp. Both are excellent shavers with the Boker being number one. I would use the SK1, but man oh man I just hate to use something so nice. I've used it once and it's just as awesome as the Boker.

Yes, I do use all of them except the little Torrey. It's just a collectible I had to have when I saw it. Also, now that I think about it, I haven't used the Wostenholm either only because I haven't gotten around to honing it.

Yup- you've got it bad! Like too many of us! Nice!

very nice collection... the sansoucci's were a source of confusion for me... they looked okay, but something bothers me about them..

interesting box... be careful with inserts, that none slip or fall...

How can you just let that "smilie" just sit there and not use it? Send it to me and I'll put it to work.

+1 to this!!! i LOVE the look of that beast!!! can we say passaround??!!??! heheheheh

That's a very nice looking collection. God to see that you've gone for some genuine antiquee blades as well.

They're my favorite as far as collecting goes. I almost dislocated my thumb reaching into my pocket when the dealer told me $20.00 for the black handled John Barber.

Very nice collection.

Awesome....I need more razors!

Wow! My wife would be packing her bags if I had a collection anything like that!

Nice start

Excellent start. I've got a long way to go to be at that level
