taking care of my daily razor after shaving

I think you see guys are all over the map, so to speak, on what we do with our gear.
   I hot water rinse mine the disassemble and might rinse again. After that I put the blade on a microfiber towel and dry the razor parts with a separate much softer microfiber cloth that won't even scratch a mirror finished Wolfman type finish.
I do this every time and leave it to dry usually 24 hours. 
  It's a bit of procedure but some of these razors are expensive, to me.

I you look at the Poll in the thread link I posted above you will see that membership was more of less split 50:50 on disassemble and rinse/dry vs leave it.  You can still participate in the Poll if you like.

You're wise to take care of your valuable  razors especially vintage ones.  I will dig around and see if I can find the post I made wherein I pasted instructions I received from Chris at RazorPlate (with permission) regarding care of vintage razors.

I think you can apply these tips to any razor you want vintage or not.

Oh I see where I already voted in that hole how about that. That is a pretty close vote.

You’re welcome. Chris is a very helpful guy. I don’t know if he’s still replating razors but I found his work to be excellent.

thank you Marko for your precious advices and truly sorry about my delated answer!!!!

All of my razors are modern - either modern design or contemporary copies of older designs.  For some reason I haven't fallen down the vintage rabbit hole yet.

I loosen the head, rinse with warm water, blow it dry with my breath, and lay it on its side to dry so the head is standing vertically.  

When I change the blade I go over it quickly with a soft toothbrush and Dawn detergent, let it dry, add a few drops of food grade mineral oil to the threads and reassemble.

Well Gents, don’t tell my razors what an ass I am!  I rinse em off.  Dry them (sort of) on my shower towel.  Put em back In their place.  I keep 5 razors in rotation until I feel a need to replace with another five and there go into storage.  I change blades when it gets tuggy and brush the razors off with an old soft toothbrush at that time.

Nothing special on my end. Rinse razor and dry on towel and put back in stand. Disassemble when blade needs to be changed which is usually after 4 to 5 shaves. Never had any issues doing it this way.

I'm one of those silly lads who, after every shave, always opens up the razor, removes the blade, cleans up the razor, dries the razor, pats the blade dry, and then reassemble.

Some things to remember: 

Cotton towels can be mildly abrasive, especially to very fine, mirror polished finishes.

CAP (over at B&B) has suggested in the past that TTO razors should be rinsed well, dried, opened up, turned upside-down(head down,) and left to dry.  The idea is to allow all of the water to drain out of the razor, so mineral deposits don't form on the parts inside the razor.  This is especially important if you have hard water.  Mineral deposits(lime, calcium) can build up over time and make moving parts not so easy to move anymore. 

Patting razor blades dry instead of wiping will avoid damaging the fine razor edge as well as avoiding damaging you.(Its a razor blade for crying out loud! Avoid nasty cuts! )
