Abstract: A razor has a handle which holds a pair of double-edged blades enclosed by a cartridge member, by means of a fexible yoke having cartridge engaging hooks on each of its yoke arms. Dimple bearing means located on each side of the cartridge keep the yoke hooks in engagement with the cartridge. A central rod holding the yoke bears against an upturned end of a razor handle and acts to spread the yoke arms in loading and unloading the cartridge onto the yoke hooks. The rod holds the yoke and cartridge assembly in either a rigid posture or with allowance for a free float of the cartridge on the pivot bearings of the hooks in the dimples by means of a tooth on the rod in ratchet-like engagement with various slots formed in the handle adjacent the path of travel of the push rod to and from contact with the upturned end of the razor body.
