In picture there are:

Fatip Piccolo
Edwin Jagger DE89
Rimei
Gillette Tech
Gillette Gold Tech
Gillette Superspeed
Gillette G1000

I have another G1000 and one Slim Twist on closet waiting for cleaning.

Fatip is the most loved one.
 
Unfortunately only one. A 1933 gillette tto. But I'm also new to DE shaving always have my eye out for more. Would love to find a fatboy.
 
Five, but as far as DE razors go, just a DE89LBL. But I'm on the lookout for a P3-dated Gillette adjustable that won't break the bank.
 
Hey all, here's my little collection. Velvet open comb, 70's Gillette tech, aristocrat #15, M 1 slim adjustable and a G 2 fat boy. $image.jpg
 
I bought two dozen DE and SE razors....tried them all and ended up keeping only one. Sold off the rest.


I kept ATT Kronos razor....love it
 
Few days ago I have taken my whole collection and taken few pictures.
And finally I was able to count them all and it's:

160 Double Edge razors
17 Single Edge razors
9 GII type razors
11 Straights
--------------
197 in total

I have three modern razors on order, 2 Gillettes in the mail and 5 non-Gillettes on the way. And the weekend isn't over yet!
 
Just added a Rockwell 6S, so I'm up to 19. Five modern, the rest vintage Gillettes except for one.

I'll get one more, if the waiting list ever opens up again, a Wolfman. Then I'll stop. Hopefully.

(I've been saying this since around razor 10, I think.)

I only started wet shaving in January but I now have 2 razors:

1) Merkur 38 HD Long handle Barber pole
2) Merkur Progress Long Handle

I'd really like a vintage Gillette (Fat boy or Slim) for my next acquisition. I've started looking at yard sales and antique shops so now I just need patience!
