Abstract

Abstract An arcuate razor head is shaped to conform to convex and concave body surfaces. Cutting edges are emplaced in inclined arcuate surfaces, one above the other. The inclined surfaces guide the cutting edges at an efficient cutting angle as the razor head is drawn over the surface of the body being shaved. The inclined surfaces intersect in a line removed from the location of the cutting edges. Both convex and concave arcuate cutting edges are immediately available to the user.
