Product Information

Here at The Modern Man we have a huge selection of men's razor blades for you to choose from. For instance, the sharp, solid, striking Double Edge Razor Blades that are as iconic as the clean, close shave they deliver. As part of our extensive Double Edge Safety Razor Blade range here at The Modern Man, we’ve made it our mission to compile a wide choice of razor blades, so that every man can look his best. If you have any questions or need some help choosing the right razor, please don’t hesitate to get in touch. The Futur’s shaving style is a bit aggressive, so it takes some focus and a steady hand to get a clean and smooth shave without any razor bumps. The adjustment dial inside the handle lets you select the aggression level, so novices should work with positions one to three. Blade Material: The type of steel or material used in the blade's construction can affect its durability. High-quality, stainless steel blades tend to last longer than less durable materials.

At Wilkinson Sword we’ve been world leaders in blade-making since we first started crafting swords in 1772. If it’s sharp, we’ve probably pioneered it at some point – and it’s razor blades that have made us famous for over a century. From the Pall Mall safety razor to the incredible Hydro 5 Sense Energize, we’ve transformed men’s shaving more times than we can count, but it’s our attitude to shaving that’s underpinned everything we do. Rapira: Rapira offers various blade types, including Platinum Lux and Swedish Supersteel, known for their quality and performance. Above all, we want pain-free results and a smooth, close shave with each product. That’s the bottom line in each category, with slight adjustments for things like sensitivity, designated function, blade type, and more. We can't judge them all by the same criteria, but we do hold them all to a universally high standard. I think artisan single edge razors that take GEM style blades appeal more to the nostalgic side of the wet shaving enthusiast. If you want a closer, smoother shave than you would typically get from a double edged safety razor, with fewer passes and less irritation, then you should consider stepping up to a single edged safety razor. Designed to be used with Feather Injector Blades (other brands such as Kai also are compatible), they shave closer and smoother than a standard razor blade.

The Most Innovative Razor

Single edge safety razors continue to capture the curiosity of shave enthusiasts, with both artisans and small businesses vying for their attention. Most are well-made and offer alternatives to the classic razor formats. However I believe some single edge razor designs will be relegated to a niche’ within a niche’ until problems with blade loading are solved. Personna: Personna blades come in different versions, including Lab Blue and Med Prep, offering a balance of sharpness and comfort. Merkur 34c (review) is a moderately-aggressive two-piece safety razor that is very suitable for inexperienced users. It is 3.28 inches long, and the comfortably knurled handle comes in at 3.04 inches. With a diameter of 0.46 inches, it feels very stable in the hand.

Blade Sharpness: Over time, blades may lose sharpness but remain usable. The point at which a blade is considered too dull to be effective varies from person to person. s coating isn’t very solid, so the metal in the corners may chip if you accidentally drop the razor into the sink. The blade of Merkur 23C is not adjustable, meaning that the level of aggression remains rather low throughout the entire shave. That’s why this model has earned itself an excellent reputation among women. They can rely on the MK 23C double edge razor for an irritation-free shaving experience. Which blades to use with Merkur 23C? Blade sharpness in a safety razor blade refers to the degree to which the blade's edge is honed and capable of cutting hair effectively. A sharper blade is characterised by a finer more precise edge that can cleanly and effortlessly slice through beard or facial hair during a shave.

While shaving, always hold your Hybrid razor by the indented spot on the handle. In terms of aggression, this model gives a relatively mild shave . This makes it suitable for wet shavers who’ve already gained some experience in the field. OneBlade Core This single blade razor has got a significant blade gap that allows a high lather flow and greatly facilitates rinsing. Yet, the gutter beneath the blade is a bit narrow and clogs quite often. As for the shave itself, I find the Asylum Injector, like the Asylum Rx (see below), to be rather aggressive–maybe a seven on a one-to-ten scale. Hype X1

Weighing in at 3.17 ounces, Muhler R41 is one of the best three-piece single blade razors. This bad boy is not for rookies. It requires good shaving technique and precision avoid cuts and skin irritation. Just one pass without any extra pressure is enough for the perfect shave with this safety razor. Which blades to use with Muhle R41? Of course, it’s not all as simple as that. Our blades are designed in a number of different ways. Classic Double Edge blades represent shaving at its most traditional – these are simple blades that can fit into any butterfly or even cut throat razor. Many of our more modern razor blades boast an innovative lubrication strip or hydrating gel pool that helps to provide an unbelievably smooth glide along with unbeatable comfort whilst shaving. Most safety razor blades are considered disposable and are designed for a limited number of shaves, typically ranging from three to seven shaves per blade. However, some individuals may extend the life of a blade with proper care and maintenance, such as rinsing and drying the blade after each use. Blade Brands and VarietiesJoe Borelli’s blog on the Mongoose family mirrors my experience with those razors. I still use the Alumagoose to shave my head because it’s so foolproof. Complicating the issue further is the fact that some artisan-made single edge razor designs do not take advantage of blade shape to make changing blades easier. For example the original GEM razors (now vintage) had a pop-up head design that made blade loading easy. Modern, artisan-made GEM-style razors are generally three piece designs that can make blade changes more fussy.
