Is there a cheaper 8/8th than the Revisor?
I am feeling the need to try a big ole blade and the Revisor is looking quite a bargain going by some of the prices of these big blades being sold on e bay, I watched a Filly go for nearly $800 the other night.
Anyone got sugestions for any others in the same price range as the Revisor?
P.S. not interested in 7/8ths (I have got that)

Many of the larger blades I have were local finds well under market prices or from eboy in a hidden area and over looked by most. I refuse to pay top dollar for most razors. If you have the patients and are persistent in your search you can save some money too. Of course it may take some time. Good luck.

Jaycey. I can only say that to fing 8/8 on UK secondhand market is realy rare. Unfortunately it looks like that even known Sheffield brands were making only smaller blades on this side of the pond unlike their subsidiaries in states. Shortly they have big blades and we have CFs. Thinking of what you can get from Revisor it will be hard to match.
