    Default KAI blades out of production?

    Now that I decided I like them better than Feathers... I can only find a box of 5 here and there. I was planning on making a bulk order. Don't tell me I have to start hoarding these.

    Keep us posted. The Kai is my fav all around.

    I was wondering if the trouble in Japan will affect Feathers and Kais.

    Vendor Ntguy use to sell them in bulk but they don't come package in the cardboard box, at least mine didn't when I ordered.

    Just PM him to get the current price.

    See his thread here:

    From what I understand, Kai blades in bulk (anything over 5) come loose, and come that way from the manufacturer.


    I find it interesting that on the Kai company website they have their DE blades listed not under shaving blades, but under industrial blades. Also, it looks like they make a blade to fit autostrops.

    Industry still uses de razor blades for plastic film slitting. I am wondering if that is why they have them in that section. I also find it interesting that the actual Kai blade has no printing on them.

    I guess I fell for another april fools joke,
