One of the best parts of this community, IMHO , is the fellowship and of course , seeing great pictures of razor collections
But , i think it would be interesting if there was one thread where people post the collection focus and maybe why they chose that area.
I know the old adage - collect what you like and i have collected many items over the years , and have seensome incredible passion for their hobby - whether they desire a complete collection or focus on a single area.
I don't think pics are necessary, unless you want to , since they are littered throughout many threads.
I have decided to collect Aristocrat's. Right now , i am working on American models and then the British models. I will probably look to collect the Diplomat/Executive/President at some point.
I think these are some of the best looking razors made, and they are great shavers.
I also think i may dabble in a representative collection of Gillette razors - i don't need every variation , just an overview. With my OCD , this should be a challenge itself. The normal suspects -Fatboy, slim adjustables, SS's , and the pre war models - ranger tech, milord, etc
