Truefitt & Hill Regency Horn/Chrome Safety Razor |
The Truefitt & Hill Regency Horn Safety Razor features a stockier build, giving it some weight in the hands of a man who loves to be in control. Exceptional balance makes the shaving experience a noble endeavor.
You won't find "safety razors" at your typical supermarket, but they are certainly not new. The first safety razor was invented in the late 18th century by a Frenchman, Jean-Jacques Perret; prior to the invention of the first safety razor most men used a straight razor. While straight razors can still be acquired these days (including at this site!), they are not nearly as popular because they require a lot of skill and practice to master. A safety razor is a razor where the skin is protected from all but the very edge of the blade.
