The Working Man Safety Razor

The Sixty8 Provisional “Working Man Safety Razor” is a collaboration product that combines the talents of four Chicago, IL based firms. Handmade. Local. The razor handle was designed to solve a few problems in wet shaving. Small, lightweight handles that don’t have enough space for all your fingers and thumb make getting the initial shave angle difficult. Raising the head by 5/8”, The Working Man Safety Razor gives you visibility of the edge during the shave. The weight of the razor is twice or more the weight of other razors, which helps the razor do all the work while shaving. The added weight also helps prevent the user from “pushing” the razor against the face to achieve a close shave, which can lead to nicks and cuts. The razor accepts your favorite double sided safety razor blade. The Razor Handle is hand-machined on a lathe from 316 stainless steel.  Working with TDF Machine of Chicago, Sixty8 Provisional Co. developed solutions to problems we found through experiences ourselves
