A razor handle. The razor handle can have a main body and a pivoting head pivotally coupled with the main body about a first axis of rotation. A severable benefit delivery member can extend from a main body connection on the main body to a pivoting head connection on the pivoting head, the benefit delivery member providing a first biasing torque on the pivoting head to affect an angular deflection about the first axis of rotation of the pivoting head relative to the main body. A spring member can extend from a spring-main-body connection on the main body to a spring-pivoting-head connection on the pivoting head, the spring member applying a second biasing torque to affect an angular deflection about the first axis of rotation of the pivoting head relative to the main body. A ratio of the sum of the first and second pivoting torques divided by the angular deflection in radians to the second pivoting torque divided by the angular deflection in radians of the pivoting head with the pivot benefit delivery connection severed can be greater than 2:1.

A blow molded article comprising a housing defining a hollow interior. The housing comprises a blow molded thermoplastic polymer and a thermoplastic elastomer on a portion of the blow molded thermoplastic polymer. The thermoplastic elastomer is polar and hydrophilic. A coefficient of friction of the thermoplastic elastomer when wet is higher than a coefficient of friction of the blow molded thermoplastic polymer when wet.
