Hey! Why diss the SE razors? Counting the 3 GEM I bought this week, I may now have more "types" of SE than DE.

My bad. I should have just said safety razors as I included my SEs in my count. Sorry, will try to fix when I can

I like to keep it simply in the DE department. I have some of the big names such as the R41, EJ DE89, and Mergress. It is enough variety for me. Shaving brushes on the other hand is my struggle!

SE's get some love. I've got a GEM 1912, Fat GEM Jr., skinny GEM Jr., English GEM 1912, Micromatic, Clog Pruf, G-Bar, and 1914

14.... Been at this under a month (only using one for the first month). Crap. Why did you make me count?

I have somewhere in-between 10 and 20 razors total. But I am only using 5 in my rotation. Merkur 37C, iKon S3S, Feather Popular, Gillette Tech w/ iKon Bulldog handle, and a Gillette Slim Adj., and I have an iKon OSS I am waiting for in the mail. Once I have the OSS I will move the Tech out of rotation.
Basically my rotation goes from 'easy to use mild' then 'intermediate aggression and skill' to 'very close shave but hard to not cut myself'. It depends on my mood and needs at the time. I am at the point where my RAD is still going strong but I am having a hard time finding anything that offers a better over all shave then what my rotation offers me now. For an example: I would like an Tradere razor (looks very cool) but can it offer a better shave then my slant? can I afford another $100+ razor next to my two ($159, $225) iKons? Some of the razors I purchase before have been ether been crap and a waste of money or gave me a good overall shave but not a better shave compared to what I already have. My suggestion, Pick 5 razors and make them your standards, and when you find a new razor you want, ask yourself this: "Would this offer a better overall shave then my top 5?".

note: I only buy razors I will shave with, I don't like to collect and not use them.

I own only two (2), Merkur's 23C & 38C.

3. Merkur 45 Bakelite
4. Merkur HD
5. Gillette Fat Boy
6. Gillette Slim
7. Gillette SA
8. Gillette Red Tip (x2)
9. Gillette Blue Tip

My bad. I should have said safety razors, as I counted my SE in my number. Sorry!

I have to think about it, but it's not that many. I've sold off a few, too. Currently, I have the following:

1. Fatboy
2. Red Tip
3. Flare Tip
4. Blue Tip
5. fat-handled Tech
6. Old Type
7. Long-comb NEW


And, I think that's it.
