It would be a hard challenge to try to list them. It's not that many, it's just digging through the drawer where they hang out and multiply/get lost.

I have a Merkur 38c and a Muhle R41. Since I can only use one at time, this should work....for now.
i have owned 130+ at one time
now it's 5 - i'm cured!

2 types: 1 Gillette SS '67 and one razor (no brand) that I bought for 6 pesos in Mexico. I'll post a picture of it some day. It is small and light, like a travel razor. Three pieces. It is not well done: the blade is more exposed on one side than on the other; it is not heavy enough to shave without putting some pressure yourself.
A third one is on the mail, but it is also a SS.

i now have 5 DE's and VAD - i've moved to collecting vintage LPs.................
Seems like some are trying to define "kinds" of DE razors. Depends on a narrow or broad view of the term. Are all Techs or Super Speeds one kind? Do you count falre tip, blue tip, red tip as all Super Speeds. Adjustables... Fat Boy and Slim are one kind or different? So, depending on definitions... I either have 3 "kinds" or 6 "kinds". Either way, I don't have near enough!
I own 4, 2 of which I bought and the other two I "inherited" from my two grandfathers.
I don't plan on buying any more.

Hello there,
I know what you mean. I have gotten in DE shaving and injectors for the last several months and I have purchase over twenty razors: 1 40's Gillette butterfly, 2 Gillette small travel razors, 2 Gillette Fatboys, 2 Gillette super slim, 1 Gillette Red Tip, 1 Parker 46 R, and an assortment of Injectors, from the Schick Injector E with Bakelite and Amber handles, the Lady Schick Injector (long handle), a Schick Injector Adjustable, amongst others. Combined I have over 20 and rising.
I love collecting them and I look forward to morning shave experience in anticipation of which razor I will use. As well, there are approximately 5 or 6 new razors I would like to acquire, such as the Traderer Razor, the Muhle Rake, an Edwinn Jagger and the Cobra Classic Injector, I will not even mention the straight razors I would like to collect. Anyways the addiction of collecting shaving accouterments does not dissipate with time, on the contrary I believe it grows stronger, driven by improvements in our technique over time (we become better shavers) and our thirst to find the perfect shave. As I said, so far I have 20 razors and feel like I have not touched the tip of the iceberg, eventually if I keep up at this pace my basement is bound to become a shaving museum.
And before I forget, a good bottle of wine, a dozen roses and the occasional visit to the mother-in-laws house will help in softening the wife's attitude towards your new hobby. Well happy shaving and keep up the good posts.
