Thread: If you were going to make a production razor...

I think with price point it breaks down into US/UK ("western" countries) vs China / Pakistan. If you are going to source and produce the razor in any of the western countries you would probably need to be at or above $100. If you outsource part, or all, of the materials or process to much cheaper labor markets your can probably achieve a quality that would sell for $50.

I'm personally interested in an American made company, but understand the arguments for outsourcing.

Out sourced production tend to get shot down.
I'm pretty sure someone already does/did that once. Basically had the razor made in China then honed and scaled them here.
