(57) The invention relates to a shaving apparatus comprising a drivable cutting unit with
cutters, each cutter being equipped with a lead cutter which leads in the direction
of driving and which is movable relative to the cutter. The lead cutters serve to
slightly pull the hairs, so that a better shaving result can be obtained. The distance
over which the hairs can be moved is limited by the shape and dimensions of the cutter
and the lead cutter and by the properties of the hairs and the skin. It is the object
of the invention to eliminate this restriction and this leads to a construction in
accordance with which each cutter. in addition to the said first lead cutter, is equipped
with a second lead cutter which leads relative to the first lead cutter and which
second lead cutter is movable relative to the first lead cutter.
