Stopped shaving in the 90's. So don't know if they are available today, But...
Bought a bunch of Good News disposable razors from a Cryogenic Tempering company for the same cost as at the local drug store. They, of course had cryotempered the razors. I used a store bought razor it lasted a couple days. Then a cryotempered razor. It lasted a month!
Gave all my friends and relatives one of each. Didn't tell them which was which. The razor looked the same. Asked them to tell me if there was any difference between the two. EVERYONE was amazed that one of the razors lasted a month, the other not even a week.
At the time I had a 944 Turbo that the front brake rotors were getting hot enough to warp just autocrossing. Sent a pair off and had them cryotempered. No more warped rotors! My mechanic told he used to use dry ice and alcohol to cryotemper 911 push rods to keep them from getting bent in racing applications.
I somehow doubt razor companies want to cryotemper their blades. Especially the cheap disposable ones.
