Abstract
A razor having a razor blade unit with a razor blade fixedly disposed in a plastic housing, and also having a handle, on the front end of which the razor blade unit is pivotably mounted via a forked holder that can be opened and closed. The razor blade unit, starting from a spring-loaded neutral position, is pivotable about a pivot axis that extends parallel to the cutting edge of the razor blade. To provide a pivot head razor where the razor blade unit can execute only slight pivot movements relative to the handle during the shaving process, the pivot axis of the forked holder extends in the region of the cutting edge of the razor blade.
