Thanks Maggie. I didn’t realise they were more expensive. I hardly ever buy new ones as I use a pin to scrape the hairs out from between the blades and then they work fine again. But have you seen Parker safety razors? These are all metal so both the blades and razor are fully recyclable at the end of their life. They come in men’s, women’s and unisex. And the blades are VERY cheap — I think you can get about 100 for under $10. That’s what I plan to get when my reusable shaver eventually wears out.
