Razor Blade Cleaning and Sharpening Device

摘要

The present invention relates to a device and a method for sharpening and cleaning a safety razor blade. The device comprises a polymer-based mat and either one or more polymer-based holding elements (21-24) for holding the safety razor blade in a fixed relationship with the device, or a pair of guiding tracks (4,4') being arranged so that at least part of the polymer-based mat is arranged between said pair of guiding tracks. The guiding tracks and the polymer-based mat are arranged relative to each other in such a way that the guiding tracks define a maximum allowed penetration depth of the blades of the safety razor blade into the polymer-based mat. By applying the device and a method according to the present invention the lifetime of safety razor blades may be increased by a factor of up to five.
