Best place to buy razors?

[southbark]

I purchased a Merkur Long Handled Safety Razor-#180- Made in Germany last week and have been using it succesfully. I wanted to know where is the best and cheapest place to purchase the razor blades to refill my Merkur.

Thanks

Well - I have not found any great deals on Merkur blades. Here is the best I could find for a volume purchase (200 blades at 38 cents each):

I recommend you try using either Derby, Crystal, or DORCO. They are a great value. I would buy 100 blades at a time, which equates to 8 - 12 cents each. This guy is really good:

He also has sampler packs so you can try various blades.

Although he does not advertise it on his site - he will sell Derby's in lots of 100 if you email him and ask for a price.

I do not (at least for the money) recommend Merkur, Personna, or Wilkinson.

Sometime, at least try the DE blades at Family Dollar. It may sound weird, but they seem fantastic.
