The resurgence of interest in traditional men’s shaving has led to a market for tools once almost obsolete. One vital instrument to a wet shave is a safety razor. But what IS a safety razor, where did it come from, and why is it called a “safety"?
Gillette’s invention of a razor with disposable blades exploded onto the scene (with a strong push from the US Army which commissioned his razors and blades for general issue to soldiers.) By crafting a razor that could be used at home with cheap disposable blades that eliminated sharpening, Gillette revolutionized men’s grooming.
Thank goodness though Gillette moved onto a way more lucrative cartridge razor business, and somehow the really effective and economic safety razor was not under an exclusive patent, so today we all can reap the benefits of this excellent technology.
