I need to find a slot for testing those. I'm trying not to fall too far behind on the blade-to-razor testing that I'm doing during the bonanza. I skipped 6 razors during the BIC testing, 4 razors during the Wizamet testing, 4 razors during the Nacet testing, and will likely miss 4 razors during the Perma-Sharp testing.
I feel as if I'm falling behind in the bonanza!

No such thing! It's my own personal agenda to run the 11 blades being tested through 28 razors. An aggressive undertaking.
And I thought doing 50 tucks with 4-5 razors was bad

It's fun, but the daily setup is time consuming and I have no available shave time open for other razors until this summer. I'll probably do a "Single Edged Summer" to test my Rolls and new GEM razors, as well as exercise new and old ACs
Hmm lets see. 50 tucks x 5 = 250 blades. That is just 250 weeks => 4.8 years if you use one blade per week. Yep sounds about right. Not bad.

You must be planning for a VERY long life....maybe you have to switch to one pass and done or maybe one stroke and done.
PLEASE NOTE: Those are not tucks, but 100 packs!
Only one and done here! Should be around a year from now I’ll be out
Hmm in that case it looks like you need to up your game a bit...
I have a few blades. <eg>
They aren't stored on the kitchen bar top, however... I have them safely stored in the master bedroom walk-in closet, along with all the packaging boxes of all my shaving gear...

Trust me I would but my collection is spilling out of my cabinet already!

Err...or 250 packs.
That photo doesn't include the recently acquired GEM Blades (4 packs), nor the three packs of double wrapped GSBS...

There you go. Now I feel better!
After seeing Kim's blade organizer I was not surprised to see the immaculate blade storage. It looks great.
You should see the inside of the cabinets in the picture. They're full of Timeless Crown handles!
Legend has it that Kim has most of the ones ever made!

aare..you...implying...250...100-packs? If you are let us look at some math.
250 x 100 = 25,000 bladesOne and done: 25,000 / 365 (if you shave every day) = 68.5 years!
One blade/one week: 25,000 / 52 = 480 years
Have you found the fountain of youth of something?
That sounds very dangerous indeed.
I think Mark is still leading that race... As of last count, at least... 11 Ti Crown handles.. 12 razor stands.
