How Harry’s Bought a German Razor Factory

15th June 2015

Read it.

“I went into the drug store. I’d run out of razor blades and just had a really frustrating purchase experience,” Katz-Mayfield recalls. “They were locked in a case, which I found to be a little bit absurd. I was buying razor blades — not diamond jewelry. And I wound up spending over $20 for four razor blades and some shaving cream, and I didn’t have a good feeling as a consumer. I knew I was getting taken advantage of, and I didn’t really have any choice in the matter.”

Harry’s sells shaving kits, individual razors, and bottles of shaving cream. For $15, you can get a shaving kit complete with a five-blade razor, three replacement blades, and shaving cream. When you consider that just a razor and a couple replacement blades from Gillette will run you anywhere from $10 to $15, Harry’s kits look like a pretty good deal.

I use ’em, and I like ’em.
