Abstract

A single-blade razor apparatus and methods are for manufacturing the same. A razor apparatus includes a handle and a head pivotably mounted on the handle. The head includes 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 form the aperture. The lower portion physically interfaces 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 includes several protruding latches proximate the front side of the head, which respectively mate with recesses formed in the upper portion. Alternatively, the latches are formed in the upper portion and respectively mate with recesses formed in the lower portion.
