(under subclass 53) Razors in which the guard is movable independently of the blade to provide an unguarded blade edge. The device may then be used as an unguarded razor or it may be stropped. The guard may be separately removable, or it may be pivoted or otherwise arranged for movement away from the blade edge.
(1) Note. Search should be completed in this class, subclass 54, most of the patents therein being arranged so that an unguarded blade edge may be provided.
(2) Note. Compare this class, subclasses 284 and 285.
