What is the weight of the whole head (cap+blade plate) and just the handle? How is the weight of this razor distributed (to the head or the handle)?

Hello,Cap + Blade Plate = 30 gramsHandle Only =60 gramsIn my hand, it feels very well balanced. Weight well distributed. Neither head nor handle heavy.I hope this helps.

The handle weighs 60.0 grams. The head and cap (with razor blade installed) weighs 30.5 grams. Taking the blade out, my kitchen scale reads 30.0 grams.These measurements were taken with my kitchen scale. Everything on the scale together (including blade) reads 90.0 grams. So, I'd say my scale is off by +- 0.5 gram or so.Should give you a rough idea of the weight distribution.

The weight is unknown but the "heft" is solid and substantial. If there is a weight bias it is weighted to the handle, thus assuring control of the blade pressure. The shave is without nicks or cuts and no aftershave burn. Great razor for daily shaves, not for heavy beard growth.

No clue. The handle is metal however. It looks good and feels good, but is crap. Used German razors just to make sure it is not the razors that are bad.

You are right , this particular razor is made of zinc alloy(the head) and not brass. We made a mistake in the earlier post as we confused with our other razor that will come out shortly, sorry for any confusion.

The handle on the razor I received in this set measures 3.75". I have really large hands, but with a double edge razor you really should let the weight of the razor do the work by holding it with the fingertips, not palming the handle.

The head dimensions are the same as any double edged razor. They all are uniform because they all use a standard DE blade. The handle is 4".

Well, I don't have anything small enough to measure, but if you are talking about the edge opposite the handle, then I would say pretty darned thin. Could cut you if enough pressure applied but not literally "razor" sharp. Sorry I'm not more help!

Hi Randy:The head w/ the foil comes off reveling the blades. They snap out of the razor. From the edges (long ways) lift straight up. And Bob's your Uncle.

Nope, it specicically says for the neck down. Don't even try it. I have a shaved head too and when I first started shaving it, used a regular razor. I found another solution. Check out www.headblade.com It's a specially designed razor that fits in your hand, gives you a lot of control over the blade, and is made specifically for shaving your head. I bought mine online, but since then, the local Wal-Mart has started carrying it.

I am not certain on the exact weight, but it feels good in my hand, it does not feel heavy in my hand. My hands are small and I really like these clippers.

It has a standard Braun cutting head and foil, but as I mention in my review, it's a smaller surface than on something like the 7,000 series. So when shaving with it (especially if you have a "heavy" beard) it will take a bit longer, but it is definitely a good quality Braun razor - just smaller (excellently set up for travel).

Hello, the head does pivot and it does have the two hooks on each side to grab the atra style razors.Problem, the all metal handle and all metal head is connected by a plastic connector that you can not see. The head broke off from the handle. I now went back to a double edge razor "Merkur" I save allot of money and get a great shave "old school" Good luck!

It weighs a tad over a pound. But if you have trouble gripping knives this would be ideal. You don't have to keep lifting it, just rock it over what you are chopping. Sharp and effective.

The entire head, including the blade, spike and tang are stamped from one piece of 1/4" steel plate. This is fitted into a slot in the poly handle and secured with screws. By the way , the "axe" is a bit light for heavy chopping, but this makes it much quicker, better for defensive purposes

Not sure of the exact weight. B & W website ought to have it. I'd estimate that the combined base and head are about 80 - 90 pounds. Luckily, it easily breaks in two so you don't have to lift the whole thing at once.

I'm not sure of the weight but it's very light. My 7 yr old son carries it everywhere. Anyone who sees it thinks it great! The handle is easy to use. It bends back so you can stand it up.It's a little tricky at first getting the plug in to charge it but I love it!

That's a good question. Perhaps they are hoping no one reads that far. Mine has a plastic handle; however, I do have a handle from a broken razor that may fit, so maybe I can salvage something out of it. Should have known to be more careful when looking at an 87-cent razor.

I'm not sure the weight but the quality is cheap plastic and mine broke after a couple uses so I wouldn't doubt the weight is low just personally I wouldn't buy it just get a dremel the extra 10 bucks is worth it
