I pulled out about 70 SE razors: lather catchers, Damaskeenes, 1912s, EverReadys, Schicks, Gem MMs, The Bunny, TNNSERs, AutoStrops, and more. There are only 30 days in SEptember, so some razors will not be making the cut. I will also be avoiding all unmentionables during SEptember.

I took this picture of the first 39 I pulled out. I had not gotten to the lather catchers or AutoStrops.

OK, you made me rethink this a little. I revised the list a bit taking out the Gem Baton to include my Gold Featherweight.

NNNNOOOOOO not the Gem Baton, say it aint so.
Just kidding. Very nice list. I mostly use SE anyway latterly so SEptember is a walk in the park for me. I just go with whatever strikes the mood when I'm ready to shave. I can't imagine actually scheduling a whole month out. Kudos to you.

Very nice list Jayaruh!!! I'm planning on doing some doubling up in SEptember -- I know it complicates cleanup, but it's a way to squeeze in a few more razors into the lineup. It also helps me think through which razor I consider better on the first pass than the second pass and vice versa; as well as which ones I consider naturals at batting "cleanup" (so there may even be a triple in my future). In addition to adding more razors to a shave, I'm still planning on making this SEptember a Schicktember by making sure that all of my Schicks make it in the lineup.

Another change: I had left out my AutoStrops, so I am replacing the Gem 1912 with my AutoStrop A1 on the 18th.
