Very nice haul!! Congrats!!
 
Do people collect single edged razors? I'd say for every double edged I found, there were three single edged for sale.

Yes, I probably have close to 100. When DE acquisition is slow, there's always some nice SE's to pick up, and they're usually pretty cheap.

Mail Call:- I received two packages today which are the Gillette Blue Tip A4 1955 and the Gillette Super Adjustable Short Handle P1 1970

 
I just won a Aristocrat Adjustable and took delivery this week, I'll try it on #5 and see how it goes. It's one beautiful and heavy razor. I got lucky and got it for about halve of what they have been going for lately.
 
Picked up a Parker 48R and a Merkur Chunky today at a flea market. Not vintage but for $2 each, I couldn't pass them up and I think they're pretty cool. Anyone have experience with a Merkur like this one?
