Wilkinson Sword and Razors
In the last 120 years, the battle to design the perfect razor has been fought worldwide by inventors and engineers who, working in Europe, the United States and Britain, applied for thousands of patents.

The development and design of safety and straight razors by Wilkinson Sword from their earliest foray into shaving products in the 1890's with their "Figaro" straight razor is followed here in detail.

From their first "Patent Safety Shaver" in 1903, the development of new models over the next hundred years is carefully described and illustrated showing Wilkinson Sword to be at the forefront of quality razor design, with innovative technology.
"Mr. Blue Chin had a trying time, he suffered from stubble trouble. Every morning he would go twice over his face and every third day he'd add one more to that mounting pile of used blades. For evening occasions he'd have to reap another harvest. It was getting a bit too much. Then one day things took a turn for the better. A quick once over in the morning was enough. Gone was that pile of used blades. His chin was smooth the whole day long. Evening shaves were forgotten. He didn't know himself. He felt a new man. Mr. Blue Chin had become Mr. Clean Chin - and all because someone said "Why don't you try a Wilkinson?"
