Abstract
A disposable razor with means for recording usage including a blade cartridge portion and a handle portion, the handle portion including a sidewall with an inner and outer surface. A plurality of push tabs are located on the sidewall of the handle, the push tabs being bordered by one or more grooves formed into the inner and/or outer surface of the sidewall; or the push tabs are bordered by one or more grooves formed into one or both surfaces of the sidewall and one or more slits extending all the way through the sidewall. Pressure applied onto the outer surface of a push tab causes a portion of the push tab to break away from the remainder of the sidewall, leaving a visible "breakline", and so providing a means for recording a limited numerical quantity.

A disposable razor with means for recording usage, said razor including:
- a) a blade cartridge portion including a blade;
- b) a handle including a sidewall with an inner and outer surface;
- c) a plurality of push tabs formed in said sidewall, each of said push tabs being at least partially bordered by (1) at least one flexible or bendable section of sidewall, and (2) at least one breakable section of sidewall, so that at least a portion of said breakable section of sidewall can be broken by applying pressure on the outer surface of said push tab, while said push tab remains connected with said handle by at least a portion of said flexible or bendable section, thus creating a visible breakage and providing the user with a means for recording a limited numerical quantity.

- b) a handle including a sidewall with an inner and outer surface;
- c) a plurality of push tabs formed in said sidewall, each of said push tabs being at least partially bordered by (1) at least one flexible or bendable section of sidewall, and (2) at least one breakable section of sidewall, and (3) at least one slit extending all the way through said sidewall, so that at least a portion of said breakable section of sidewall can be broken by applying pressure on the outer surface of said push tab, while said push tab remains connected with said handle by at least a portion of said flexible or bendable section, thus creating a visible breakage and providing the user with a means for recording a limited numerical quantity.
A disposable razor including:
- a) a razor cartridge portion including a blade;
- b) a handle with a sidewall thereof having an inner and outer surface;
- c) a plurality of push tabs formed in said sidewall, each of said push tabs being at least partially enclosed by (1) at least one flexible or bendable section of sidewall, and (2) at least one breakable section of sidewall, so that at least a portion of said breakable section of sidewall can be broken by applying pressure on the outer surface of said push tab, while said push tab remains connected with said handle by at least a portion of said flexible or bendable section, thus creating a visible breakage and providing the user with a means for recording a limited numerical quantity.
