I think your wholesale price point for a quality razor is too low to be realistic.

There are plenty of Razor Shaped Objects (RSOs) out there to definitely avoid. See the "do not buy" list in my previous post.

The Dovo blade I own is a great razor, but something to keep in mind is that they call their blades shave ready from the box. The one I bought wasn't even close. Some more reputable retailers hone them before shipping, or at least offer the caveat that "shave ready" might be a stretch.

I am not knocking the brand in any way, just as a perspective retailer, I wouldn't look at the "shave ready" claim and think it was a saved step in the process.
