razorblade
Thin steel slicer
A razorblade is the thin, sharp metal blade used in a razor for shaving or cutting.
The term often refers specifically to the replaceable double-edged blades used in safety razors, though it applies to any razor's cutting element.
Razorblades appear frequently in imagery suggesting danger, self-harm, or precision: sharp as a razorblade, walking on a razorblade.
