double edge razor
Traditional shaving tool
A double edge razor is a safety razor designed to hold a single blade with two sharpened edges, allowing both sides to be used for shaving.
The blade sits in a protective head that exposes only a small portion of each edge, reducing the risk of cuts compared to straight razors.
Double edge razors were the standard for much of the 20th century before cartridge razors dominated the market, though they've seen a revival among wet shaving enthusiasts who prefer their close shave and lower blade costs.
