To start the mission of aquiring Mehrunes Razor, you need to go speak with a member of the Mythic Dawn, named Silus Vesuius. There is a mythic dawn museum in Dawnstar and he will be standing outside in front of the museum. Go and talk to him and then he will instruct you to find the pieces of the razor.
For the Hilt, head to Morthal and talk to Jorgen. He works by the sawmill. A high speech skill makes this part of the quest extremely easy. If you managed to convince him, hell give you the key to his house and chest. If you dont want to waste time talking to him, you can just pick the locks of the door and grab the hilt from the chest inside.
The pommel is located in Dead Crone Rock. Be careful as you approach this area, as there are a lot of enemies patrolling the area (forsworn, etc.) You need to enter the building first then exit to Skyrim again to reach the upper level where a hagraven and Word Wall is found. Be careful of the soul gem-powered fire traps. Kill the hagraven named Drascua and deactivate the traps. Loot the pommel from Drascuas corpse.
Once the pieces are collected and you have spoken to Mehrunes Dagon. Kill Silus, careful though because he like to run and summon a familiar. Once he is dead Mehrunes Dagon will speak to you and then reforge the Mehrunes Razor. Once you have claimed the dagger watch out as Mehrunes Dagon will summon two very nasty Dremora whom will attack you. You can run or stay and fight. They can be equipped with fire enchanted weapons, so keep that in mind when fighting them. Once dead they will have a key each to Mehrunes Dagons shrine and dont forget their Daedra hearts (which can be sold for a pretty penny or used for making Daedric armour).In the shrine , you can fight two more Dremora . The shrine has a good number of loot, including several gold ingots. The weapon drops for the Dremora – ironically – can include a bow or weapon enchanted with the Banish enchantment, which is very useful to make money in the game.
Magical ability: Hits have a small chance to instantly kill. If smithing skill upgraded in improving magical weapons/armor, Mehrunes’ Razor Damage rating will be 50. Damage can be even higher if you use fortify potions, enchanted amuletes, rings, and clothing that will improve weapons and armor and if One-handed weapon skill is very high. Needs an Ebony ingot to upgrade.

Pieces of the Past cannot be attempted until you reach at least level 20. Once you do, youll receive an invitation via a courier upon reaching any city in Skyrim. This prompts a Miscellaneous mini-quest to further investigate.

The shards are located in the trap-laden vault of Cracked Tusk Keep. The vault is locked so you may want to hunt to resident bandit chief, Ghunzul and loot the key from his body.

Its connected to Pieces of the Past, which unlocks when youre level 20. Once you turn level 20, a courier will inform you of a museum opening up in Dawnstar. There, youll run into a guy named Silus Vesuius who begins the quest.
During the quest:
Just as an additional aside (and major spoiler):
Once after that, two Dremora will appear at the shrine. Kill them and take the keys to get in the shrine. Inside youll find 2 more Dremoras and there are so much loot.
Wait 10 days and the Dremoras will respawn and the shrine will be reset. You can kill the Dremora, and then wait for 10 days to get more, leaving a good method of getting unlimited daedra hearts.
