I know what both of you are talking about. Due to my retirement my Silverback is in lockdown - fully agreed upon with my wife until we "settle down" with the adjustment. Quite a spendy last 4 years with all the kit. But if there is a deal I'll bite.
I do have quite a few aristos, diplomats and a few presidents, cased, uncased and mis-cased - in various need of repair. But there are some beauties in there as well.
I'll post a few pictures when I get a few chores done.
I like the idea of getting pictures of razors like the Personna Adjustable on this thread. Didn't know they made one. Great idea for a show and tell on razors. I'll participate. Regards, Rob

I'm down to my Chatsworth, 38C, and Gillette Slim Twist plus these two more interesting oldies. A 1918 Single Ring and a Shavex - the latter is in regular use, close shave but relatively mild. Don't see many around. Must have been as cheap as chips.

Steve surely has a Hoffritz, but perhaps a few others.
Nice collections and/or items so far...

Excellent response chaps, however I do notice no one has laid their full collection out in one photo. I am thinking this is because a) its too big to fit in one photograph or b) They don't want to get it all out in one place incase the Mrs walks in 
Own up chaps which option is it?

:icon_lol: Both
A) To fit in one picture, I'd have to stand that far back no one would be able to tell what was what.
B) SWMBO would have to be out of the country before I'd risk it:angel:

One of the few SE that I've been able to find has been this 1900 STAR. Case and Razor are in very good condition for being 112 yrs young.

Now I'm scared, if I end up with that many I think the missus would not be too pleased.
A very impressive collection of razors and brushes there Steve.

Excellent and very well laid out as Paul just said. Well done Steve (and I know well how hard you've been trying all these few years in order to get some of these beauties shown there!)
