Is there, like, a super cheap place to get a norton 4k/8k?

cottonblossomcrafts.com is a killer cheap place to get DE Feather blades, some good Merkur razors, taylors creams..

Is there an equivlant for straight razor stuff? In particular, a norton 4k/8k?

The cheapest I see a 4k/8k combo is $69 +$8 shipping, found here:

Here's one that has it for $65 +$8.75ish shipping

Those are dirt-cheap prices. Not gonna get much (if any) cheaper for a new one.

Again, to keep it in the family check a recent post by Vintage Blades. I think Jim just dropped his price to $69.95 and I don't think Classic is much different. Either will give you good service and valid advice.

Icecow, I sent you a pm about this.

The cheapest I found was $65 + $3 shipping in the U.S. I asked for Priority shipping and they upgraded it for free.

Thanks for the plug Tony. Yes I have them in stock for $69.99 and ship all orders under $100 Priority Mail for $5. If you want to add the Norton Prep Stone for Waterstones, they are $12.99.

Jim,
Glad to help. I hate when buyers forget the "locals" and head off to the woodworking warehouses instead.
