Can get good used razors new or some great old ones on eBay.
All you had to do is tell them it was a Federally Approved FEMA Issued Blue Roof, just like all the ones still on the gulf coast.
Check out the link below. I have been using this method and have used the same Mach 3 blade for about 6 months. The blade seems to be sharper than new.
No linky :(
Personally I put my razor (Orange throw away Schick) triple in alcohol. Get two-three months from it instead of 2-3 weeks. Saves a few pennies.
Most amazing after the first time I tried it is how it came back when I thought it was done.
Must admit how Gillette haa kept their prices up over the years. Great marketing and products. But their days are over.
Monday night boxing used to tell me look sharp be sharp. Funny, my last few years, I worked for......Sharp.
I also keep denatured alcohol for extreme cleaning. It does not have water or glycerin added. Great prep for epoxy adhesives and great to clean your mouse or track ball.
