Abstract
A safety razor comprises a blade unit mounted on a handle for pivotal movement in one direction from a rest position, the pivot axis being arranged to underlie the guard surface. In the rest position, the entire handle is disposed forwardly of a plane containing the trailing edge of the guard surface. The handle is pivoted to the blade unit by connection pieces having stub axles engaged in apertures in the blade unit, and edges bearing against cam faces on the blade unit to urge the blade unit to the rest position, the connection pieces being carried by wings either acted upon by springs or having a resilient form.
