Nothing wrong with that. I rinse my razors and dry them after each shave and every DE razor (or SE that uses Gems) has their blades cleaned, dried and stored away.Tuesday 23rd April 2019 PM
Pre-shave:- Warm rinse / Proraso Red pre-shave cream
Brush:- Stirling Soap Co. Finest Badger
Soap/Cream:- OSP Orange and Patchouli soap
Razor/Blade:- Gillette Fatboy Setting 7 / Gillette 7 o'clock Green Super Stainless
Post-shave:- Thayers Cucumber / OSP Orange and Patchouli aftershave / Bart's Cinnamon and Patchouli balm.
I set an hour aside this evening to clean my razors, stripping them down and trying my best to meticulously clean and polish wherever I could. I'm a bit OCD when I comes to razors as I have to wash them down, clean and dry them after every shave however I wanted them to be that bit extra shiny tonight.
It may come as no surprise that the Fatboy came up like a new shiny penny. I was happy it was clean before but stripping it down and cleaning each part gives an odd sense of satisfaction. It honestly looks brand new and it was an easy choice as to what I was using tonight to remove my stubble.
It was loaded with a fresh 7 o'clock Green blade and the OSP Orange and Patchouli soap and aftershave were another easy choice.
An easy 3 pass shave was delivered. The OSP soap is becoming a firm favourite.
A BBS result with the nearly 60 year old razor! Tremendous.
Have a great night folks. [emoji1303]

+1 here. I do exactly the same. I believe in looking after everything you have.
