how many blades do you have? who has the most blades on the forum?

I am coming close to 13000 now. Expecting currently 300 to arrive. During the years past I have bought at least 400-500 of each blade I liked. Some I have 700-800 pcs (like Gillette 365)
You belong in BOSC cause that’s crazy. If you shave only once on each blade and you shave every day, your stash will last over 35 years! Since you probably don’t do all that, you will likely never use all your blades. Have you given thought to who you are going to will them to?

2306 if my accounting is accurate. Should last me on the order of 400 years of daily shaves.

Favorites are Gillette Silver Blue, Personna Lab Blue (probably the best of the bunch) and 7 O'Clock Blacks (Super Platinum from India).

Maybe 70, mainly PIRs with a dozen or so Crystals and 3 Feathers. Crystals are my favorites.

I have already written it in other threads. Some blades [like the 7 o'clock Super Stainless] are only good for 2 shaves with my beard. There are very few modern blades that can give me 5 shaves, but even with them I sometimes go for only 4. And I give blades to my relatives occasionaly.

Well,

My storage says

ASP 200
Voskod 200
Derby Green 50
Derby Black 50
Shark SS 200
Feather 10
Sputnik 10
Perma Sharp 5
7 o'clock yellow 80
Personna blue 50

I guess my fav strongly depends on the razor I am using. With the Giesen & Forsthoff gentle shaver it is ASP and Shark. With the Tatara Masamune it is the Shark...On the R41, well... ASP or Personna.

I try to befriend with Feather, but so far I lack appreciation of it...

Thanks Ivan,
Do you know who actually produces these blades sold as fake Polsilver? Are they good for anything? Is it closer to the quality of DORCO or Derby Extra blades?
 
I probably have close to 400.

100 Gillette Platinums
100 Personna Israeli Reds
100 Astra SP's
25 Gillette Silver Blues
Probably close to 75 from blade samplers of different makes
