How many razors do you own?

[iLamb0]

About 5 DE and over 70 Straight razors.

 

[Luukii]

Muhle R89 (daily)
Merkur 34c HD (used occasionaly)
Muhle R41 (never used, bought because it was 50% sale)
Gilette Slim adjustable 1964 (never used, still getting the hang of wetshaving)
Gilette Tech set no27, NOS (will not be used either)
And I thought I would be saving money

[Northstonehill]

I own the four listed below and they are all part of my regular rotation. Every time I change blade I change the razor too.
And-uh... since we're sharing... a #66 Aristocrat in the mail too. But then I'm done (haha)

 

[tipster_621]

I have 1 new DE - Parker 22R - my first DE from my wife on Father's Day.
...and 13 vintage Gillettes:
1921 Ball end Old Type
1922 New Improved Tuckaway
1940's Contract Tech
Late 40's Post-War Ball End Tech
'46/'47 Aristocrat
1950's British Tech
1950 Superspeed
1951 Black Tip Superspeed
1953 Milord
1956 Blue Tip Superspeed
1959 Fatboy
1960 Toggle
1963 Flare Tip Superspeed

...and 1 SE - '30's/'40's Gem Micromatic Open Comb.

Yes, they are all in rotation, except for the Milord - I just got it, and one of the end caps fell off while I was cleaning it, so it will soon be out for repair. I was switching between razors every time I'd use a new blade, about every 4 days. Fatboy February threw off my rotation for a month. I may go back to moving the blade around from razor to razor so I can use each razor more frequently, as I've developed a new appreciation for using a blade for more than 4 days. I tried having multiple razors loaded at once, but it was too hard to keep up with how many times I'd used each blade.

One correction - the 1953 Milord is actually a 1949 Milord (notched, end caps, and no date code)
...and a couple of new additions - I just acquired a 1967 Slim Adjustable this weekend, and an EverReady 1912. 1 modern DE, 14 vintage Gillettes and 2 single edge razors.

WHOOOOOA...!?!?!?! Impressed I am. Nice.

I... I don't even know. I stopped counting a year or so ago and got distracted. I cannot even be sure of the straights.

 

[NOLA]

Only two for me, but that might be changing soon. Current:

Ikon X3
Fatip Piccolo

 

[Toothpick]

I honestly don't know. I've bought about 7 or 8 just within the past few weeks. I toss em in a box and continue the hunt. Probably a lot.

[Bookworm]

I'll be able to tell later. I took a pile of pictures, and I'm going to post them up for people to comment about me. Especially since the bulk of them are SuperSpeeds

 

[ponderosabob]

Eleven total. Ranging from mild to aggressive. Both bar and open comb, straights and slants. I think the slants are my favorites.
Merkur 43C
Feather AS-D2
Ikon X3 slant
Muhle R89
Muhle R41
Razorock Old Style Open Comb
Razorock German Slant
Merkur 37C
Edwin Jagger DES89lbl
Edwin Jagger DE3D14bl
can't remember the last one....

 

[Toothpick]

OK, just a few I guess. Slim, Fatboy, techs, superspeeds, single edge, travel razors. Not sure date codes.

 

[Bookworm]

11 straights (nine DA/GD - need to sell/PIF/trade)
29 Gillettes
2 probably frankenrazors
1 Krona
2 Schick Injectors
1 Piccolo
5 Baili (4 are RazoRock)
1 Durham Duplex
2 Rimei
3 HongLong
1 BAYOU
4 flat head Gems, including G-Bar and push button
2 German travel razors. One with extreme Pest, the other missing one piece of the handle.
1 Weishi 9306CEL
1 Star
1 'Frank's Shaving'/Virginia Sheng 3 piece (technically 4, as the retaining knob wasn't locked in with thread locker)
1 white plastic unlabeled 3 piece with a brass threaded insert in the handle and in the head.
2 or 3 misc cartridge handles. I don't think they count.
---
Whoops - almost forgot.
1 Curvfit
2 Christy

I'm pretty sure that I have too many SuperSpeeds, and half of the rest aren't interesting to me. The chinese cheapies are for giveaways, but I don't hate anyone enough for that BAYOU. I _also_ think there's another box somewhere with another Star and G-Bar.

So - 71, give or take a bit?
