Henson Shaving

Namesake, William Samuel Henson, was an aviation engineer and inventor predating the Wright Brothers. Henson invented the modern form of the razor, the 'T' shaped safety razor, and patented it in 1847. Although there was a significant improvement from the prior form of the safety razor, additional improvement was necessary to make safety razors a common and usable item for everyone. The new challenge was to bring a razor at an affordable price. Mission accomplished! Because every component of the Henson razor is precision machined, they are able to achieve extremely tight tolerances in a manufacturing setting to provide you with an incredibly high quality and affordable razor.
