Abstract: A safety razor is provided with a handle at one end of which is rigidly connected a head. A pair of movable, facing hooks is disposed at the ends of the head, and the hooks are removably engageable within housings formed in a blade-holder base. The hooks are pivotally mounted on corresponding pivot pins integral with the head and project along a certain portion from corresponding slots formed in the head. The slots define the stroke of the hooks from a first position of mutual maximum approaching to a second position of maximum spacing. The first position is obtained by way of a spring acting between the hooks. The head is fastened to the razor handle by a screw so that it can be disassembled therefrom, if necessary.
