Abstract

A single-blade razor apparatus and methods for manufacturing the same. A razor apparatus may include a handle and a head pivotably mounted on the handle. The head may include a rear side including an aperture for receiving a single blade, as well as a front side through which a cutting edge of the blade is exposed during use. An upper portion and a lower portion of the head may form the aperture. The lower portion may physically interface with the upper portion so that a front region of the upper portion is physically supported by the lower portion. In a particular implementation, the lower portion may include several protruding latches proximate the front side of the head, which may respectively mate with recesses formed in the upper portion. Alternatively, the latches may be formed in the upper portion and may respectively mate with recesses formed in the lower portion.
