Edwin Jagger DE8911BL Ball End Safety Razor is a three-piece double edge razor made by Edwin Jagger in Sheffield, England, with a smooth chrome-plated handle finished in a distinctive rounded ball end cap. It shares the same closed comb DE89 head used across Edwin Jagger's DE8 range, giving a mild to moderate shave that suits both new wet shavers and those with more experience. A Feather Hi-Stainless DE blade is included, so it is ready to use out of the box.The handle is slightly heavier than Edwin Jagger's original DE89 design, with more of the weight sitting toward the head. This lets the razor do more of the cutting work itself, rather than the shaver needing to apply pressure. The ball end shape and smooth chrome finish give a comfortable, secure grip, with the Edwin Jagger name engraved around the collar.Being a three-piece razor, the head separates fully from the handle for blade changes and cleaning, and it takes any standard double edge blade. It is a practical option for anyone starting out with a safety razor, or for an experienced shaver who wants a dependable, well balanced chrome razor to add to their rotation.Key FeaturesThree-piece double edge safety razor with a closed comb headSmooth chrome-plated handle with a rounded ball end capBalance weighted toward the head for a lower-pressure shaveIncludes one Feather Hi-Stainless DE bladeMade in Sheffield, EnglandHow to UseUnscrew the head fully to load or change the double edge bladeReassemble and tighten by hand; avoid overtightening as the head is cast metal and can be damaged if droppedHold the razor at a shallow angle to the skin and let the weight of the head guide the cut, applying minimal pressureRinse the head regularly during shaving to clear hair and lather build-upSpecificationsOverall length: 9.5cm (3.7in)Handle length: 8.5cm (3.3in)Construction: chrome plated metalHead type: closed comb, three-pieceCountry of manufacture: EnglandIncludes: 1x Feather Hi-Stainless DE blade
