Abstract

A wet razor having a handle, on the front end of which is disposed a razor head that carries a razor blade, is provided. In the region between the razor head and a grasping portion of the handle, there is provided a turning mechanism via which the razor head, with its razor blade, is freely rotatable relative to the grasping portion of the handle about an axis of rotation that is perpendicular to the cutting edge of the razor blade. Associated with the turning mechanism 5 is a spring-type resetting mechanism via which the razor head, starting from a prescribed starting position and after a limited deflection or travel, can automatically return to the starting position due to spring force.
