Synthetic Diamond blades - New Meaning to the HHT
Just ran across this site, check out the article and video.
Synthetic Diamonds Offer Key to Razor Blades That Last Years, Not Weeks | Ecouterre
How much for the new Dovo Synthetic Diamond straight razor? Only needs to be honed every 15 years. Might require some serious equipment to do so. Ha ha!

Odds are that Gillette would pay many millions just to buy the technology and then shelve it. There would just be too much at stake if they let something like that get out on the market.

This is what someone said in the comments under the article:
"Oh wow, sounds like a plan to me. But it will never happen. Too much money at stake."
He is completely right.

Welcome to SRP. Thanks for the link but it is immaterial to me. I'm hooked on straight razor shaving.
If you keep on with it you will be too.
Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

My first real straight is on its way to me. Bare bones "Best Quality" Dovo 6/8 from Vintage Blades. I'm looking forward to learning.
I've used disposable straights and I regularly shave with a DE and love it.
Best regards,
The Fish

Having experience with the disposable straights will be a big help as well as your experience with the DE. The lathering, prep and all. Read my sig below to avoid nicks and cuts. Originally Posted by BeRadtheFish

You can get the ones that take half a DE blade pretty cheap.

Who's gonna be the first to have a diamond carbide straight razor?
