Abstract
A razor has a handle with an articulable joint intermediate the cutting blade and the portion of the handle grasped by a user. The joint is made of resilient elastomeric memory material so that the head of the razor may be moved from an initial position to a displaced position and back to the initial position. The joint has at least one undercut to reduce its thickness and facilitate the moving of the head.
