Given the feedback I'm settling in to an idea/device that I am capable of putting together and is cheap. A basic drug dealer scale, synthetic hair, and a pully. I'll basically pull the hair down towards the scale where the razor sits facing up and have a camera recording video as I pull. I can then stop recording when the hair cuts, and review the exact moment on my computer to get the force reading from the scale. It should cost like $20. Scientists could rip this apart, but for my purposes I think it will do. I'll do about 3 runs per blade to get a simple mean of the force required. This along with the microscopic pictures and measurements should cover my mental cost of entry in to the consumer's mind as a legit source of data.
