Abstract
A method for shaping a coating on a razor blade is provided. The method includes the steps of: a) providing a razor blade having a tip end defined by at least one tip surface; b) applying a surface coating having a first thickness on at least one tip surface; and c) shaping the applied surface coating on the at least one tip surface to have a second thickness using a centrifuge, which second thickness is less than the first thickness.

A method for shaping a coating on a razor blade, comprising the steps of:
- providing a razor blade having a tip end defined by at least one tip surface;
- applying a surface coating having a first thickness on at least one tip surface;
- and
- shaping the applied surface coating on the at least one tip surface to have a second thickness using a centrifuge, which second thickness is less than the first thickness.
A method for shaping a coating on a razor blade, comprising the steps of:
- providing a plurality of razor blades, each razor blade having a tip end defined by at least one tip surface, and an applied surface coating having a first thickness applied on the at least one tip surface;
- loading the razor blades in a centrifuge with the tip ends of the razor blades disposed within the centrifuge in a common orientation;
- and
- centrifuging the blades to shape the applied surface coating on the at least one tip surface of each razor blade to have a second thickness, which second thickness is less than the first thickness.
