I tried Harry's once. Cut the heck out of my face. Blades were further apart than the Gillette 5 blade I use.
Sent them back and they refunded $$ I paid.

Several years ago I bought about 10 Gillette blade packs.
I use them for about a year before changing them. I'm good for a decade at least.
 
Unfortunately it is a subscription service only.
 
I use single edged "safety" razor blades. My picks are Derby, Shark, Astra, Personna, and Feather. Most of them were around $7 to $11 per hundred, except for Feather. The best price I could get for Feather was 25 cents each. My Merkur handle was just over $20 or so.

My subjective opinion:
Derby is not the sharpest, but it gets the job done and is very forgiving.
Shark and Astra are sharper and do a good job.
Personna is a bit sharper still.
Feather is super sharp, and can give a great shave, but it demands respect.
