    It's funny .... just after my first st8, I went on hunting for restoration material among old barbers and antique shops.... well, now I have 5 restored and my original, along with my Norton 4k/8k, soaps, creams, and so on.... I actually made a beautiful box to keep my babies safe from harm!!!!..... I agree with all on the "normal" side..... Good luck!!!!

    Razor collecting is like getting drunk, it just sort of happens, one minute you're fine, the next minute you're falling over.

    I bought my first razor and strop a couple of days before joining this forum.
    I now have 4 razors (another 2 on order) and 3 strops
    Makes no sense but its fun

    Hmmmmmmm. I too have 4 razors but only one strop. Maybe it is time for me to come out of my brief retirement and do some strop shopping!

    Yes, it's quite normal. In fact, imho you are somewhat behind the curve. Straight razor shaving can lead to all sorts of acquisition disorders. The acquisition of razors, brushes and soaps/creams is par for the course.

    Welcome to the club chief. BTW...Did you say that SRD is having a monthly sale on the Boker Edleweiss? I must definitely look into that.
