Abstract: A razor handle with a counterbalance of a weight and/or magnet disposed therein are disclosed. The handle may include upper and lower enclosures extending between two opposing ends and may be divided into two parts: a base and an arm. The weight and/or magnet may be disposed within the base and between the upper and lower enclosures, and a horizontal length of the base may be less than the horizontal length of the arm. The counterbalance creates a center of mass of the base which is horizontally closer to a pivot surface than a center of mass of the arm. As a result, whenever a lower surface of the arm or a surface of an upper enclosure is placed in a resting position on a horizontal surface when the razor is not employed by a user, a cartridge coupled to the razor handle will not contact the horizontal surface.
