ABSTRACT:
A safety razor having a handle carrying a head having two projecting tongues, a platform having a pair of undercut recesses for receiving the tongues and a shield for overlying the razor blade head. The platform includes along its underside a retaining edge opposite the undercuts, a pair of centering ribs spaced one from the other and with tapered edges for engaging the end edges of the handle head, and a pair of crush ribs adjacent the undercuts to bias the head and platform away from one another in final securement. To assemble the safety razor, the handle head tongues are inserted into the undercuts and the handle is pivoted to seat the back edge of its head beneath the underside of the platform edge. The pivoting action causes the handle end edges to bear against the tapered centering ribs centering the handle relative to the platform and the crush ribs to engage the head to afford a tight fit. The shield is generally channel-shaped and has angled end edges and lugs at each of the opposite corners for engaging in chamfers formed along the underside of the platform to facilitate centering of the shield on the platform.
