Dual directional razor

Abstract

A dual directional disposable razor that includes a razor head with two sets of inward slanted blades mounted transversely therein. The cutting tips of the blades extend through an opening formed on the top surface of the razor head. The razor head is pivotally mounted on the distal end of a handle which allows the razor head to maintain contact with the skin at all times and yet allow the handle to be rotated above or below the razor head. In the preferred embodiment, the top surface of razor head and the longitudinal axis of the handle are approximately 20 degrees apart. The two sets of blades are equally aligned on opposite sides of the head's center longitudinal axis and stop surfaces are provided between the head and the handle so that the blades are properly positioned. An optional flexible swipe blade is attached to the upper back edge of the razor head that allows the user to wipe away excess shaving cream or gel.
