The arms of the forked yoking means are resilient and diverge when the base plate member and the capping member unit are slideably inserted therebetween, due to a ridge means formed on the respective outer surfaces of such base plate and capping members, and such arms converge when the ridge means enters into juxtaposition with complementally formed recess means formed on the respective inner surfaces of the resilient arms.

Abstract: A barber or straight edge razor houses a replaceable blade and includes a body member having a handle and a blade-receiving base portion, a clamp member detachably hinged to the base portion to comprise opposite halves of the razor, and bias apparatus between the razor halves above the hinge for urging the lower portions of the razor halves relatively toward each other to retain the blade therebetween. The blade is releasable by moving the upper portions of the razor halves relatively toward one another. Along a rear gripping portion of the razor halves, one of the halves is structured to assume substantially all of the normal gripping forces so as to prevent inadvertent release of the blade, while the halves include a forward region which is structured to receive special pinching forces to release the blade. Upwardly and rearwardly inclined ridges in the blade-retaining region may be provided to aid in upward seating of the blade as it is moved rearwardly into the razor.

Abstract: A light weight handle and head carry a blade with a discontinuous cutting edge. The handle extends at an acute angle to the extent of the blade edge. The handle increases in girth from the head to its free end. The head is slotted to receive the blade in a carrier or guard with a "V"-shaped cross-section. The trough of the "V" is perforated to define slim bands that cross the edge of the blade. The perforate edges are contoured to eliminate drag on the skin and hair of the user. The longitudinal axis of the handle is coplanar with the blade and the handle configuration enables the user to rotate the razor head for ease in shaving difficult areas. The carrier interrupts the skin contact of the cutting edge to prevent slicing the skin.
