I gifted this razor to my partner and he was very pleased! He keeps thanking me every time he uses it. The packaging was lovely as well , very elegant, which was a big plus for me. Definitely a high quality product.
Great shave without breaking the bank
My first single-blade safety razor and I’ve been impressed with how careful and smooth a shave it gives me. The razor has a nice weight to it, giving you good control in every direction.
Have used the razor twice since buying and it’s very easy to use despite having separate blades! Haven’t had any problems with razor burn and it feels really nice to hold and use!!
This razor does the perfect job, clean cuts and easy to handle. I love how cheap the replacement blades are and the lack of plastic is definitely an added bonus!
Better than similar products at the same price point. Love that it comes with 5 blades instead of the usual 1-3, stand is very useful too.
Lovely product, feels very high quality! Gifted this to my Dad and he was really impressed, would absolutely recommend!!
Fantastic product that is incredibly high quality and works an absolute treat. Feels great on the skin and so comfortable to hold and use. Couldn't recommend it enough!
Simple, easy to use design. Looks classy and works great as a razor. Very easy to clean and the stand works well. Would definitely recommend.
Loving my razor, provides a much closer shave with wayyy less skin irritation. Takes a bit of getting used to but after my 2nd shave I pretty much had the hang of it!
Added bonus is that is looks beautiful in my bathroom, build is solid, materials are quality. 5/5*!
Provides a close and smooth shave :) the handle has a high quality, heavy feel to it. It’s definitely going to last me a very long time. Loved that it arrived in non-plastic compostable packaging!
Loving my new safety razor. Classy design, comes with 5 blades and new ones are gonna be so cheap!
Can't recommend enough.
My skin feels so much smoother shaving with this! I am never wasting money on cartridges again.
Have used disposables all my life so was a big switch for me but I’m happy so far. Nice to have less plastic in my bathroom and it does look good.
No razor bumps so far.
How Smoothly Does it Shave?
The British Association of Dermatologists suggest that single-blade razors reduce pseudofolliculitis (ingrown hairs & bumps).
- 1 blade is enough, no need to compensate for low quality steel with multiple blades.
- Weighted razor glides across your skin, giving you a close shave without you needing to apply pressure.

Frequent Questions
What is a safety razor?
A traditional Double Edge Safety Razor, is the name for a shaving device with a protective barrier positioned between the edge of the cutting blade and the skin.
Traditional double edge safety razors have been around since 1880. They would have been the razor of choice for your father or grandfather before the cartridge system revolution in the 1970s and 80s.
Recent years have seen a rise in popularity for this classic form of shaving for a number of reasons. Replacement safety razor blades are considerably less expensive than cartridges (2,3), making them more economical for long term use. Only one blade and no lubrication strip tends to cause less irritation on skin prone to redness and itching after a shave (4,6). Also, due to the reduction in single use plastic, safety razors are better for the environment.
Is it easy to learn how to use a safety razor?
Safety razors require a slightly different technique so can take a bit of getting used to!
Kronos razors have an enclosed head design - this means that the corner of the blade is shielded and as little of the blade is exposed as possible - minimising your risk of nicks & cuts.
With the right technique you'll discover the smoothest shave of your life (4,6).
What is the right shaving technique?
Rather than pressing the razor against the skin, it is best to apply minimal pressure and let the high-quality blade do the work.
1. Shave in the direction of hair growth.
2. Use a shallow 30 degree angle.
3. Use short, gentle strokes and let the weight of the razor do the work.
Are safety razors good for sensitive skin?
Using a safety razor gives a close and clean shave, whilst avoiding irritation to the skin. Visit our blog for more information on how safety razors prevent in-grown hairs.
Is your razor unisex?
Whether you're looking for a female safety razor for bikini area or a mens safety razor for your beard, our razor is designed to to be 100% unisex.
With our enclosed head design, the blade of the corner is shielded, meaning the razor is manoeuvrable and can be used in difficult to reach areas.
How long do the razor blades last?
Depending on the thickness of the hair and frequency of use, a blade may only need to be replaced after several weeks. Because each side of the double-edged blade is used independently, the blades can last up to twice as long compared to multi-blade cartridges.
Additionally, the blades cost pennies, you will not feel pressured to extend the life of them and compromise the quality of your shave. You can replace your blades more often without burning a hole in your wallet (2,3).
