A subassembly for a shaving razor cartridge with a base having a front wall with a top surface and a rear wall with a top surface. At least one blade is mounted to the base between the front wall and the rear wall. The at least one blade has a cutting edge positioned at least 0.5 mm below a plane tangent to the top surface of the front wall and the top surface of the rear wall.

Proposed is a razor cartridge protective case including a receiving space configured to receive at least a portion of a razor cartridge that includes at least one razor blade extending in a longitudinal direction. The razor cartridge protective case may include a front wall disposed at a front of the receiving space and configured to face a front surface of the razor cartridge, where a cutting edge of the at least one razor blade is exposed. The case may also include a longitudinal side wall disposed on one longitudinal side of the receiving space. The case may further include a first extension wall disposed at a rear of the receiving space and extending from the longitudinal side wall, wherein the first extension wall is configured to be coupled to a rear surface of the razor cartridge.

A double-sided razor is configured with connection mechanisms on opposite sides to engage with attachable and replaceable razor blades. In typical implementations, the razor may have a short side and a long side that respectively engage with relatively shorter and longer-sized razor blades. Users can use different-sized razor blades for different shaving scenarios. For example, the longer-sized razor blade may be used to shave the face, legs, chest, etc., whereas the short-side razor blade may be used to shave the user's upper lip, pubic and genital region, etc. The short-side razor blade may help the user shave more precisely and cautiously to prevent an unnecessary cut. A bottom side of the double-sided razor can have a lever that rotatably pivots from one side of the razor to the other so a guard can block the unused blades from cutting a user.

A blade element for a razor cartridge includes a blade support, a blade and a comb-like element. The blade support includes a base portion and a bent upper portion. The blade is arranged at the upper portion of the blade support and includes a cutting edge. The comb-like element includes a shaft and a plurality of teeth. The comb-like element is arranged parallel to the blade. The plurality of teeth extend parallel to each other form the shaft to beyond the cutting edge of the blade. Further, the comb-like element is disposed above the blade.

A razor cartridge has a housing with a blade mounting region between a guard and a cap. A first, second and third razor blade are sequentially mounted in the blade mounting region. An over-guard is secured over the blades. The cutting edges of the blades have an as-defined increased sharpness. The blades are mounted at a reduced angle between each blade portion bearing the cutting edge and a reference plane tangential to the cutting edges of the first and third blade. Individual longitudinal members of the over-guard that lie over each blade and have a progressively decreasing height above the reference plane in a front to back direction of the razor cartridge. A further longitudinal member is forward of the first blade and has a height above the reference plane.

One embodiment of a dual sided razor comprises a handle and a cartridge attached to the handle, the cartridge further comprising a first shaving side and a second shaving side, the cartridge being switchable relative to the handle between the first and second shaving sides.

A razor blade. The razor blade includes a substrate having a first facet and a second facet that converge to define a cutting edge. A first textured surface is formed on the first facet and includes a first plurality of elements with a depth between about 0.01 m and about 20 m. The first textured surface is spaced apart from the cutting edge by about 0.05 m to about 2 m.

A razor has a handle and a rotatable head assembly coupled to the handle. The rotatable head assembly has a magnetic pickup adapted to draw a blade from a blade cartridge to the rotatable head assembly. The rotatable head assembly has a blade platform to contain the blade, head flap rotatable about the blade platform, and hinge between the blade platform and the head flap. The blade platform has a ball plunger to contact the external source and a keyed riser to hold the blade. A stand supports the razor over a vertical surface or horizontal surface. The blade cartridge has a housing, blade drawer disposed within the housing, and roller disposed over the blade drawer to pick up a blade from the blade drawer. The blade drawer has a blade platform to hold a plurality of blades, and spring element to apply pressure to the blade platform.
