Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2012005839A2] A safety razor includes a razor cartridge connected to a razor handle. When the safety razor is at rest on a horizontal surface the areas of contact of the razor handle and the horizontal surface include a surface of an opposed end of the grip portion of the handle and a surface of a foot at a first end of the grip portion. When the safety razor is in this at rest position the razor cartridge is spaced from the horizontal surface. A shaving aid body of the cartridge that can be water swellable is also spaced from the horizontal surface. By application of an external force the safety razor can be rocked to a position where the razor cartridge additionally contacts the horizontal surface. When the safety razor is released from the rocked position it self-rights to its at rest position.
