Abstract: The specific disclosure provides a safety razor comprising a cap member having a planar skin abutting upper surface defining a first plane for guiding the shaver over skin surfaces while shaving. A blade has a cutting edge at one end thereof in a second plane and extends from beneath the cap member. The first and second planes intersect at an angle of between about 15.degree. to about 25.degree.. A blade seat member is located beneath the blade and has a blade seat surface in contact with the blade and a plurality of spaced elements extending outwardly from beneath the cutting edge.

Abstract: The specific disclosure provides a razor blade cartridge having a pair of single edge blades which are tandemly mounted and vertically separated by a spacer. The blades and spacer are permanently bonded between a cap member and a blade seal member. Each of the blades has its cutting edge in abutting engagement with a respective pair of spaced stops. Means are provided for abutting engagement with the rear edges of the blades to prevent rearward movement thereof.

Abstract: The specific disclosure provides a dispensing system for razor blade cartridges comprising a dispenser, a plurality of cartridges in the dispenser, and a holder having a plurality of transverse supporting surfaces on top of a frame member for sliding engagement with surfaces extending transversely of each cartridge. The dispenser has a used cartridge storage end comprising a transverse opening between a used cartridge entrance port in one side wall and a holder exit port in the other side wall. A used cartridge is positioned in the used cartridge storage end through the used cartridge entrance port by means of the holder. The frame member of the holder is moved through the transverse opening to abut a side of the used cartridge against wall surfaces forming the holder exit port. Continued movement of the holder disengages the transverse supporting surfaces of the holder from the used cartridge, and such holder surfaces are removed from the storage end through the holder exit port.
