Thanked: 0Most Expensive?
What is the most expensive razor that you know? Would you dare to buy it?

Thanked: 4827There are many, many razors out there that are well beyond what I am willing to pay for a single razor. There are some that are amazing and super rare and in crazy collector condition, but I like to use my razors, so there are none of those here either. I do have what I consider very nice razors in very nice condition and a handful in near mint condition, then a couple in NOS condition.

It's only a razor, no matter what it costs.
I have some pricey ones, but I shave with them. Have to!
If it don't shave, it's not a razor. JMO.

Thanked: 3226If it is the shave you are after, never conflate price with a razors ability to shave you well. If it is something else you are after then I guess the sky is the limit for price and more than I am willing to pay for the privilege.

I think few years ago someone marketed new razors at $20k/piece basically as a luxury item. I'm pretty sure there's a thread mentioning it on the forum.

Thanked: 634I have looked at Ruga, Fili's and Dorko. Don't think I would spend the money. Very happy with my vintage blades for under $30. I can buy a lot of them for the price of the above mentioned and still get great shaves. More money does not equate to better all the time.

Mr Clean just put up a picture of 3 pristine Martin Guitars down in the guitar thread.....
Yeah. I know. You can play most guitars too. (IF you can play one, that is!)
Like nice razors, IMO. Subjective to experience and desire, I suppose.

Ive seen them for as much as 1500.00 but its only worth that price to the buyer. I think my most expencive was my Fili. And it cost 200.00 but i had no idea what i was buying. I got a good deal for a first generation fili, but id never spend that again on a razor.
It's just Sharpening, right?
