Abstract: The present invention is a razor blade carrier having a base with at least two stepped protrusion extending outwardly therefrom. The stepped protrusion define at least two landing positions that support a portion of the razor blade. The landing surfaces of the stepped protrusions cooperate to define at least two razor blade locations. The razor blade carrier is used in a razor cartridge.

Abstract: A razor head for a wet razor, and a method of making the same. The razor head, and in particular a razor blade unit, has at least one razor blade with a cutting edge, and at least one plastic part that is provided with at least one indentation which provides a well for the application of adhesive. The at least one plastic part and the at least one razor blade are secured together by the adhesive.

Abstract: A dispenser system for razor blade units, including a dispenser housing in which the razor blade units are successively and displaceably disposed. Via a handle that is provided with a latching mechanism that cooperates with the razor blade units, the razor blade units can be removed from the dispenser housing one at a time. To simplify securement of the handle to a razor blade unit that is to be removed, the dispenser housing has a guide mechanism along which the end of the handle is guided and which brings the latching mechanism of the handle into a disengagement position. After reaching the removal position, the handle automatically engages the razor blade unit, so that this unit can be removed from the dispenser housing.

Abstract: A double edged strip of blade metal is parted along a center line and cropped to form two strips each containing a series of spaced apart blades connected by webs to an elongate backing strip of blade metal. Each strip is fed into a moulding machine in which a razor, or a shaving unit, or a blade-containing component of a shaving unit is moulded directly on to each individual blade. Each web is then parted to release the moulded razor, shaving unit, or shaving unit component, from the backing strip.
