Abstract
In a safety razor the blade is retained in a manner to permit limited movement relative to the handle in the direction of its longitudinal axis. This is accomplished with blade elements of the type comprising a blade mounted in a cartridge by retaining the blade cartridge in its receptor for movement relative to the receptor. In other embodiments, the receptor is mounted on the handle in a manner to permit limited movement of the handle in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the receptor. The latter embodiment may be employed with any safety razor having its handle positioned in angular relationship to the receptor. To enhance the relative sliding movement, a lubricant may be applied between the moving parts.
