Abstract

Abstract © A tandem blade safety razor head consists of only three components: a moulded support structure defining a guard portion (1) and a blade platform (2); a primary blade (3) secured by integral rivets (4) to the platform; and a secondary blade member (7) formed from metal strip shaped to define a secondary blade (8), a curved cap portion (9) and a support leg (11) secured to the rear surface of the support structure. Rinsing is facilitated by the provision of slots (13) in the platform and aligned perforations (12) in the support leg (11). (Fig. 2 refers)
