The Henson AL13 safety razor is a precision-machined aluminum razor designed for a close, controlled shave with less irritation than disposable plastic and cartridge razors. Its lightweight, well-balanced design offers excellent maneuverability, making it approachable for first-time safety razor users while still meeting the expectations of experienced shavers.
Manufactured in Ontario, Canada at an aerospace-certified facility, the AL13 is machined to AS9100 aerospace standards, the same quality requirements used for satellite components. Tight manufacturing tolerances help keep the blade securely aligned, reducing chatter and drag for a smoother, more consistent shave. The razor weighs approximately 1.3 oz, giving it a nimble feel without sacrificing durability.
Available in aluminum and copper-toned anodized finishes. Both versions are coated with a Type II anodized finish for corrosion resistance and long-term protection. The copper finish offers a warm, distinctive look while maintaining the same performance and construction as the aluminum version.
Designed to use standard double-edge safety razor blades, the Henson AL13 is a long-lasting, low-waste alternative to disposable razors and plastic cartridge systems. A solid everyday shaving tool for anyone looking to reduce plastic waste while maintaining comfort, control, and performance.
Blade compatibility note: This razor uses standard double-edge safety blades. At Exist Green, we stock Albatross double-edge blades, which are stainless steel and uncoated. Many conventional razor blades are coated with nonstick materials such as PTFE. We choose to carry uncoated blades for customers looking to avoid fluorinated coatings in their daily routine.
