Abstract: A disposable blade unit for a safety razor comprises a thin, transversely flexible blade which is apertured along its longitudinal center line and has its two longitudinal edges parallel and sharpened to cutting edges. A pair of blade strips each having a length substantially equal to that of the blade and a width less than half that of the blade and each sharpened along one longitudinal edge only are secured symmetrically on opposite sides of the longitudinal center line of the blade with their sharpened edges directed outwardly and extending parallel to the sharpened edges of the blade.

Abstract: A razor blade unit having a cap portion, guard portion, and a blade member clamped therebetween, the unit further having coupling structure for detachably connecting the unit to a cooperating handle, and adjusting mechanism integral with the unit and operable independently of any cooperating handle for changing the relative positioning of the blade member and guard portion to vary the shaving geometry of the blade unit.
