Razor

Razor is a tool with a blade, which is mainly used to remove redundant body hair through shaving. The types of razors include straight razor, disposable razor and electric razor.

Razors have been around since the Bronze Age (the oldest razor items date back to 18000 BC), and the most common types of razors used today are safety razors and electric razors, although other types are still in use.

Razors have been found in many bronze age cultures. They are made of bronze or obsidian, usually oval, with a small shank extending from one of the short ends.

All kinds of razors have been used throughout history. They have different appearances, but they are similar to modern straight razors. In prehistoric times, clam shells, shark teeth and FL stones were sharpened and used for shaving. Patterns of this blade have been found in prehistoric caves. To this day, some tribes still use blades made of flint. Egyptian excavations can find pure gold and razors in tombs in the 4th century BC. Several razors and other personal hygiene items, believed to be noble individuals, were found in Bronze Age tombs in northern Europe. The Roman historian Livy reported that razors were introduced in ancient Rome in the 6th century BC. By the legendary King Lucius Tarquinius priscus. Priscus was ahead of his time because razors were not widely used until a century later.

In the 18th and 19th centuries, the first modern straight razor with decorative handles and hollow blades was built in Sheffield, England, the center of the tableware industry. Benjamin Huntsman produced the first high-grade hard steel through a special crucible process, which was suitable for use as a blade material in 1740, although it was first eliminated in England. Huntsman's procedure was later adopted in France. Although at first it was forced by nationalist sentiment. British manufacturers are more reluctant to adopt the process than French manufacturers, only after they see it succeed in France. Sheffield steel is a highly polished steel, also known as Sheffield silver steel, which is famous for its high gloss and is considered to be high-quality steel. Until now, manufacturers such as this issard still use it in France.

In the 18th and 19th centuries, rich people had their servants shave or might go to barbershops often. In the 19th century, daily shaving was not a common practice, so some people never shaved. The habit of American Men shaving every day is an innovation of the 20th century, which began after the first World War. Men need to shave every day so that their gas masks fit, which is easier with the advent of safety razors. It was a question of standards during the war. In the 19th century, knife makers in Sheffield, England, and Solingen, Germany, produced a variety of razors.

Straight line razor is the most common shaving method before the 20th century, and it was still common in many countries until the 1950s. Barbers are specially trained to provide customers with thorough and fast shaving. A series of straight razors are common in most barbershops. Barbers still have them, but they use them less often.

A straight razor is ultimately out of place. Their first challenger was king C. Gillette's: a two edged safety razor with a replaceable blade. Gillette's idea is to use the concept of "loss leader", in which case the razor is sold at a loss, but the profit of replacing the razor blade is high, and it can be sold continuously. As advertising campaigns and slogans deny the effectiveness of razors and question their safety, they have achieved great success.

These new safety razors can be used without any serious protection. It is very difficult to sharpen the blade. It should be thrown away after one use. If it is not thrown away, it will rust quickly. They also need smaller initial investments, although they will cost more over time. Despite its long-term advantages, razors have lost considerable market share. With the threat of shaving getting smaller and smaller, men are starting to shave more, and the demand for barbers who provide straight razors is falling.

In 1960, reusable stainless steel blades were introduced, which reduced the cost of shaving with a safety razor. The first such blades were made by Wilkinson, a famous etiquette manufacturer in Sheffield. Soon Gillette, Schick and other manufacturers began to produce stainless steel blades.

The second is multi blade blade holder and disposable razor. For each type of replaceable blade, there is usually a disposable razor.

In the 1930s, electric razors came out. Although the price of the whole shaver kit can even exceed the price of the expensive electric shaver, these can be compared with the price of the high-quality shaver.
