Yesterday I spent some time trying to find another display cabinet to put in my razor room. Finding a nice one that matches the existing furniture and doesn't cost the equivalent of a small African country's GNP isn't easy. This morning I woke up and realised that my approach had been totally wrong. My problem isn't that I don't have enough room for my rotation, but that my rotation is way too large. It's a luxury problem, but also kind of a stressful one. So this morning at 06:30 local time I began archiving the razors I knew that I probably wouldn't shave with and that I didn't need to have on display as historical artefacts. Among them several pristine C.V.H. M.K. 29, 30, 31 and 32 in ivory. I put them in a drawer in wardrobe where they are easily accessible when I feel like changing my rotation, and/or my display razors, that still consists of +125 razors.
To the descendent of Raffles, the British Victorian gentleman burglar, I'd like to add the they still are stored in a room with security locks on the windows and a surveillance camera that is watched 24-7.
