Safety Razor - $35
Double Edge Blades (100ct) - $10
I can comfortably get 3 shaves on each side and recently learned that you can get an additional 3 shaves per side by flipping the blade over totaling to 12 shaves per blade. With 100 blades you can get 1200 shaves.
$45/1200 shaves = 3¢ per shave
The above doesn't account for shaving cream. Personally I use a jar of coconut oil from Costco. I think that's about $20 online. Factoring that in takes the cost per shave up to 5¢ to 6¢ per shave. Still magnitudes of times better than what you'd pay by using the disposable plastic razors found in stores today.
