To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, John A. Everett, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Natick, in the county of Middlesex and State of Massachusetts, have invented an Improvement in Safety-Razors, of which the following description, in connection with the accompanying drawing, is a specification, like letters on the drawing representing like parts.
This invention has for its object the production of a novel, simple and efficient safety razor of few parts.
The handle of the razor comprises a hand piece
Having described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:—
1. A safety razor comprising a hand piece having a blade-sustaining portion and a projection, said blade-sustaining portion being notched at its ends, combined with a blade notched at its ends, a blade holder having at one end a hook and at its other end a leg provided with a heel, and clamping means engaging said heel and drawing upon the blade holder to clamp the blade upon the blade-sustaining portion of the hand piece.
2. A safety razor comprising a hand piece having a blade-sustaining portion, a blade adapted to rest against said blade-sustaining portion, means for positioning the blade thereon, a blade holder having at one end a hook and at its other end a leg provided with a heel, and clamping means engaging said heel and drawing upon the blade holder to clamp the blade upon the blade-sustaining portion of the hand piece.
In testimony whereof, I have signed my name to this specification, in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
John A. Everett.
