Well, now you're going to have spend 10 million years working out the question.

What did I do wrong?

Old timers give the not so old time to think about this.

You spent too much time and money acquiring new stuff instead of learning how to maintain a razor. (If you was a beginner)

Is the brush shedding?

Did you have to pawn your hones to get the brush?

Well I wonder what this will be. Maybe new brush shedding some dulling the razor IDK

Yeah I'm stumped, I would guess the irritation thing is on the right track.

Yes, this is what I was thinking, but in reality, how much badger hair do you need to shave to dull all the razors...? It's a really long shot.

Less than optimal lather from a new brush could lead to a less than optimal shave... but again, with all the razors?

I'm old, in more ways than one, but if permitted I will ask a question regarding the question…

Are the razors actually dull or are they only perceived to be dull?

Razors not fully cleaned after use?

You didn't say what you were doing with the razors. Maybe you were using them cut your dinner steak so the brush issue is a red herring here.
