Thanked: 481I had to look up what that sharpener is, I wouldn't even let my beater pocket knives near that thing.
Razors will have to be hand honed on a good razor stone. There's no way around that. They don't just have to be sharp, they have to be comfortable to shave with. Accomplishing that with a naked blade is no easy task.
Cheaper blades will not be hardened properly. The steel will be soft and either unable to take a sharp enough edge to shave, or dull very fast.
If you want to retail a blade, Dovo and Thiers Issard are the two that immediately come to mind. Maybe Hart as well. But they won't be cheap, as stated before Dovo's retail price begins at $100.
