What's new

How much current stock of blades/soap/cream do you have?

Just shy of 1,000 blades in Tupperware with a desiccant. I bring a few tucks out at a time.

Maybe 18 to 25 razors, mostly vintage Gillette.

Half a drawer + a small uhaul box mostly full of soaps and aftershaves and brushes.

Initially I was churning through stuff rapidly because I didn't really know what I was doing. It's neat to bring something out and find it's way better than I'd initially thought.
 
Razors: 2, Baili 176 and R41
Brush: 3, but only one is a serious brush (two band badger) and two came as part of sets and I don’t use them
Blades: at a guess, about 50. All sorts. They are all PIFs
Soap: 1
Stick: 1
Creams: 6 from memory

This is probably a few years worth and I don’t plan on buying anything. The only thing I think I’ll buy is some Pinaud Clubman splash.
 
Blades - about 800
Vintage Razors - 13
New Razors - 1
Soaps/Creams - 7
Balms - 2
Vintage Brushes - 4 (re-knotted)
New Brushes - 1

Enough to last me several years. Doesn't seem like a lot, compared to some of you brethren, but it's plenty for me considering I only shave 3-4 days a week, and usually only need one pass.

Remember to forget me!
The two cakes of Mitchell's I have will probably last me into 2023. The last one I used was heading towards 500 shaves, although this current brush seems to need me to load heavier than the last one did. I also have a couple of thousand shaves worth of Palmolive stick, and over 100 shaves worth of assorted soap samples. I have enough cream for maybe 30 shaves.

I think I calculated that I have enough blades for around 6000 shaves

That is a lot of brushes, but you need to add some boar and horsehair brushes to your collection.

I have 6 boar brushes but literally forgot to mention that as I so rarely use them.

I have semogue 1800, 1305 (my favorite boar).
Omega 10065, 11774, a wooden handle one and a pro 48.

Horse hair brushes I didn't like so don't have even one.
