Without any doubt or hesitation I would get rid of EVERY razor I have to keep my Blackland Vector and Schick Proline blades

This is a very hard decision. I have many favorite razors for many reasons. Narrowing down to one is practically impossible, that is, in real life, I could never do it.
My top contenders are:
Gillette Fatboy
Blackland Vector
Weck Surgical Prep Open Comb SE
Yuma
Rockwell 6S
Personna Floating Head Injector
I actually had to think long and hard on this, to actually narrow it down to one razor. The way I rationalized it was this.... if the Zombie Apocalypse happened and I was given just a few minutes to pack my bag and go, and I just had time to grab one razor and go, which would I grab? When presented like that, the answer became a little simpler for me. Granted it’s a bit situational and there are a few factors in play there, but I would absolutely grab....

Over the past few years and recent months, i slowly sold off everything.
Then went completely onto straights.
Sold all of those, and got a Timeless Ti.
Got bored of that.
And now i need to start my RAD over again LOL
But only with the help of my forum enablers!!

That’s a tough call. I’d go vintage all the way though.
Gillette Old Type
Gillette Slim
Henckels SR
J Allen SR
But if I could only pick one, I would go with the Henckels for ... reasons. That one takes stones. So in the event of a zombie apocalypse I could also use those to bash skulls. Uh ... too much?

Nobody believes that you don't already have a Zombie bag ready to go.
Another vote for the Vector. I'd be torn between that and the 6S. But since the Vector is magical and never misses...

Since we share some commonalities in razors, I think I have to get a Fatboy, lol.
I'd have to say my one razor would have to be the Rockwell... Especially since it could be considered five razors. A little rule bending never hurt anyone... Maybe? Lol.
I balk at selecting the Lupo, since it's not as versatile or smooth. I could have easily chosen the slim, but if this is a desert island thing, the slim could break... And much easier than the Rockwell would. Then I'd have to shave with a broken shell of a coconut or something. [emoji51]
You mean 6....
But that was also part of the rationale for me grabbing the Fatboy. It's adjustable so it's more versatile.I've cut my hand on broken coconut shell pieces before. They are sharp. I bet you could grind it down and put an edge on it!Then I'd have to shave with a broken shell of a coconut or something.
