ABSTRACT:
A razor caddy receives a razor handle suitable for supporting a razor cartridge. The top and bottom handle surfaces have a continuous index finger profile when gripped on the top surface of the razor handle. The razor handle has a widened portion proximate to a proximate end, and side portions of the razor handle form a concave profile between the proximate end and the distal end. The side portions also form a widened portion at the distal end. The index finger profile of the razor handle defines a detail and a normal shaving position structure in combination with the handle top and bottom surface. First and second elastomeric gripping portions are each positioned on the bottom of the handle. The detail shaving position is achieved by the first gripping portion having a defined thumb engaging area proximate to the proximate end, with the elastomeric material defining correct thumb placement. The second gripping area is positioned near the distal end of the handle. An apex shaped top surface of the razor handle is disposed to fit into the "life line" crease of a user's hand to provide secure gripping and control. The razor caddy has at least two spaced apart depressions suitable to receive the proximate and distal ends of the razor handle. The caddy, together with the razor handle, defines a substantially elliptical opening suitable to receive a user's digits upon the bottom surface of the razor handle.
