These are ten of the sharpest, smoothest shaving blades in the world. They’re used for wet-shaving with a double-edge safety razor and are made from the finest Japanese steel.

Each blade costs about $0.60.

Blades for the razor above will cost you about $0.60 for a week. the five-blade cartridge costs almost $5. If you use a blade a week, you’ll have an extra $228/year! Your grandfather was a smart guy!
