Razors Then and Now
How beautiful is this old razor from the early 1900s? Just look at that craftsmanship! Razors aren’t something unique to the 20th or 21st centuries. In fact, Solid gold and copper razors dating back to the 4th Millennium BCE have been found in Egyptian tombs. That means people have been shaving for quite some time.
Although this razor from the 1900s might be beautiful- it was also heavy and very sharp. You would not want to slip or make a mistake with that one! Modern razors, on the other hand, are often made from plastic and can be thrown away after a few usages. Some updates have helped to reduce the effect of small kicks and cuts too.
