Updated Solingen Razor Collection

Wow.. Just Wow.. Those are absolutely gorgeous.. Still green with envy over the 1151 from when you got that. but *wow*

I think bragging like this should be banded

Just kidding, I lived vicariously through you...

Keep the razor porn coming

I was just not ready to see that!

Ok, it's official. I jus had a heart attack.....

Magnificent!

No way, don't ban this kind of bragging.. It's wonderful to live vicariously through..

It also actually *helps* control the SRAD a bit - at least for me. while *could* buy those I know I *won't*. so I don't have
to try and can focus on stuff I can enjoy shaving with...

Well...

At least until I decide to treat myself.... There's a 1151 on the bay.... And Doc's FBU keeps calling to me.....

Screw that.. I just bought a new strop. and a Fili... and a new phone...

Magnificent. You have in a very short time gathered a world class straight razor collection. Congratulations. I'm happy that the ERN 32 I put a bid on found a good home[emoji4]. Please let me know when your SRAD has passed so that I might have a chance. Until then I'm happy that the razors ends up with you.The only thing I'm missing is a picture of another 32; Heljestrand MK32. Not as grand looking but I hope you'll find it to be as magnificent razor as I do.

You're a fast mover Mango. You have accumulated a beautiful collection of razor in a short time span. I remember reading one of your post regarding honing. Are you honing your razors now? If your honing which stones did you decide to use.

Ciao Feltspanky
Yes ...I'm starting slowly but surely.
I have purchased an old finishing coticule to maintain my sharp edges since I do not need to set bevels (for the time being). I went fast on the razors..... but will take my time to learn honing techniques. No rush to get a SAD !!! )

Are they just for show, or do you also shave with them?

I rotate them .6 per week.
