Safety Razor Head Design
How mild or aggressive a razor is comes from an interaction of several different specifications and some variables. But broadly here the major ones:
- Blade Gap: The distance between the cutting edge of the razor blade and the safety bar of the razor head
- Blade Exposure: How much the blade protrudes beyond the safety bar
- Safety Bar Design: Whether solid, scalloped, or open comb
- Blade Angle: The angle at which the blade meets your facial hair
Together, these elements create the razor’s overall character and performance. Don't rely on a single specification (like blade gap) as the only way to determine a razor’s aggressiveness.

OneBlade's New Blade
It’s no secret that I’m a big fan of Oneblade, particularly the OneBlade Genesis safety razor. I could probably be a brand ambassador for them and I know some people are sick of me yapping about them. They really do have some excellent products.
But one of the nagging criticisms that users of OneBlade razors make has to do with the OneBlade razor’s blade: the Feather FHS single edge blade.
OneBlade just launched their new blade, the HiCarbon SE. I’ve given it a try and I think it’s a winner!
