Razor nick names

[aussie]

So do you ever give names to any of your favourite razors? I named my first W&B "The Boss", and someone else here calls one of their razors "Big Nasty", so I borrowed that for another big monster chopper that I have.

How about you?

No, but I do have a somewhat large coticule bout I've nicknamed my "First World War British Battle Tank" as that is what the honing surface reminds me of, the form profile of a British heavy tank from the First World War. A nice, light olive-green colo(u)red coticule bout to boot...

Wife named my fili 14 Chelsea for whatever reason. I call my favorite coticule the brick /slab of butter.

Today, I found a thread on this site where someone described his Dovo straight razor as ‘malformed’.
If that poster were in the razor naming business, I’d suggest ‘Richard III’.

No, I never named a razor.

No, I never named a razor.

Then this new year may be a good time to start a new tradition!

No, I never named a razor.

I know you have a “Wittle whisker whacker”. Honed on “Honie McHoneface”. The honiest hone in Honetown.

Don’t lie.

Yes indeed what kind of straight razor user doesn't assign names to his razors?!?! LOL

Haven't done this but I feel tempted

I don't name my nicks I get from razors.

Whenever I use my 8/8ths near wedge (lately it's been most of the time) I get Arnold Schwarzenegger vibes. It's a big honky thing and I think of GET TO THE CHOPPAAAA because it's such a chopper. Haven't named the razor Ah-nuld yet but it may as well be.

No nicknames for razors, no nicknames for cars.

I never did until this one rescaled by Alfredo... which I've been calling, "Purple Haze," in honor of Hendrix.

That said, I've really never given names to inatimate objects..
