Anyone know of any methods that work? Is barbicide effective?
I have a vintage Rooney that I will use if I can disinfect it. If I can't, I'll reknot it

I use a 10 parts water to 1 part bleach solution to sterilize razors. Would a weak bleach solution like this damage badger?
Barbicide works wonders (I'm still here... but I am feeling a little flu-ish....).
I will soak a brush in a barbicide solution for approx. 2-3 minutes. I've not had discoloration or hair loss - well, the brushes haven't, anyway.
Probably. And the bleach can harm the plating on some razors (never use it on a silver plated item).
Barbicide is best - here's a good post to tell you how to do it (and, possibly, why):
