Abstract

A shaving razor system with a cartridge having a proximal end and a distal end. A handle having a proximal end is connected to the distal end of the cartridge. The handle has an enlarged distal end portion. The handle has a maximum width of 28 mm to 35 mm at the enlarged distal end portion and tapers 10 degrees to 15 degrees along a first length that extends a terminal end of the handle to a second width of 20 mm to 25 mm toward the proximal end. The handle has a maximum thickness of 8 mm to 14 mm along the first length.

Claims (27)

1. A shaving razor system comprising:

a cartridge having a proximal end and a distal end; and

a handle having a proximal end connected to the distal end of the cartridge, the handle having an enlarged distal end portion, wherein the handle has a maximum width of 28 mm to 35 mm at the enlarged distal end portion and tapers 10 degrees to 15 degrees along a first length of 60 to 65 mm that extends from a terminal end of the handle to a second width of 20 mm to 25 mm toward the proximal end of the handle and the handle has a maximum thickness of 8 mm to 14 mm along the first length.

2. The shaving razor system of claim 1 wherein the shaving razor system has an overall length from the enlarged distal end portion of the handle to the proximal end of the cartridge of 100 mm to 130 mm.

3. The shaving razor system of claim 1 wherein the handle comprises a neck having a width that is less than the second width.

4. The shaving razor system of claim 3 wherein the second width is positioned between the neck and the enlarged distal end portion.
