What's new

What razors are in your rotation?

Once upon a time I had a rotation. Thesse days I reach for my Wolfman SB 90% of the time. Sad but true!
 
Switched my razors around and now I have:

1950s Super Speed
1950s Black Tip Super Speed
1920s Old Type OC
and a GEM push button...not sure of the year. It's gold plating with a black plastic handle.
1978 Gillette Atra
2000s G Fusion for those days where I don't have time to take my time lol.
 
In order of acquisition:

Edwin Jager DE89
Merkur 37c
Gillette Fatboy
Ever Ready 1911
Schick Injector Type I
Thiers Issard AoS model
Gillette Slim
Gem Contour
Schick Injector Type E
Valet Auto Strop
Feather Artist Club
Schick Injector Type M
Gillette Red Tip

I have more, but those are the ones that get into my rotation. The funniest razor I have is a cheap travel DE my wife found at an estate sale. It gives a terrible shave and the top of the head is offset from the bottom, so the blade won't sit straight.
 
Muhle R41 (2013)
Fatip Grande in Black Metal
Gillette NEW LC
Gillette NEW SC
Weber PH with Bulldog Handle
Merkur 37C
Out of all these Muhle R41 (2013) is my daily weapon of choice !
 
Wolfman SB - 90% of the time unless I am trying out something (for me) new
BBS-1 reminder of the time

ATT R1 Kronons and Weber PH - very rarely
RazoRock Stealth Slant - travel
 
one at a time, except for odd touch-up with DE following straight training, but:

Gillette Slim
Gillette Techs
Fawsitt's
Horne Bros
Joseph Rodgers
BBR shavette
 
I rotate my razors. My go to razor is an open comb. Currently using a Gillette New Open Comb, my two other vintage Gillette open combs are also used.

My fourth open comb a FaTip Piccolo is also part of my rotation too. Used less frequently are my Rockets and Techs.
 
Darwin Standard
LC RFB NEW
No.21
Darwin DeLuxe
No.16
Darwin Adjustable
Hybrid Tech
Flat Bottom Tech
SC NEW

I use each one for the life of the blade.
 
I've got 7 or 8, but the A3 Red Tip and the '41 Ranger Tech get the most use.
That being said, I'm trying a '58 TV Special this week..... :)
 
As things stand right now:

'56 Red Tip
'63 Slim Adjustable

My vacation razor is a late 30's Fat Handle Tech - and we do lot's of short get aways.

I have an ATT S2 Kronos inbound so things could change.

I also have a Single Ring I'm fond of. But, it doesn't get much use. My 56 Flare Tip is nice as well and I keep wanting to pick it up. Oh, and then there's the Old Type Head on a Durham Duplex Handle that I also like. It might actually be easier to ask what razors I don't use!
 
These are the razors in my rotation.

I take one razor use it until I need to change blades and the go to the next.
