Wow all this preventive maintenance. All I do for my vintage gillettes (brass) and modern stainless razors is to give them a few shakes and pat dry the outside. 5 seconds tops. I never disassemble unless changing the blade. And I never lube anything. In 5 years of doing that I've had no issues with the brass or stainless razors in my den.
The only one I've had an issue with is a zamak merkur. It has some corrosion. So I can see all the preventive maintenance for zamak razors. But it seems overkill to me for razors made from the more durable metals.
