Dignity and the Wet shave

aare..you...implying...250...100-packs? If you are let us look at some math. :smartass: 250 x 100 = 25,000 blades
One 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?
Nope. Some of the packs are in quantities of 200 or 250 (Feather, Wizamet, Wilkinson)

So, only about 50 years of blades. Also, I'm pretty much a 2 or 3 and done.

Is it swell time?
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.
No worries, I am still in Nacet testing - I still need to do Wizamet and Perma Sharp, but by the time I am done with Nacets (which I am to be honest!) I will likely have yet another blade running behind in testing.

Yep, seems legit! My photo for illustration. (Note: 250 more Wizamets under the sink)

1000 blades feels like I won the world cup, just means I'm sharp. ;)😜😁

I shaved a fortune
So now it's a race Kim? Is that what this all is to you?? 🤣
I do realize I’m a bit of an anomaly. If I get a new razor and try it a few times , if it’s a keeper, I buy yet another Ti Crown handle for it and a razor stand, in titanium or bronze depending on the razor head material.

My two Wolfman 3/7 basic polish bronze handles are hollow 90mm, and feel very similar to the Ti Crowns. My hand is accustomed to the weight and feel. This reduces the adjustments I have to make when choosing any razor to the weight of the razor head and the angle of the sweet spot.

This wouldn’t work well for you, obviously, because your razor collection is evolving.

I could keep a bunch of razors in storage and switch their handles, but I prefer them out and ready to go. Some are next to the sink; the bronze and gold ones are on top of my tall dresser and the Vintage family are all in cases in one of the dresser drawers.

I guess I organize them like I do my tools.
