Abstract
A shaving system with a handle having an enlarged proximal end portion and a housing spaced apart from the enlarged proximal end portion of the handle. The housing has a front face, at least one blade and a cap behind the at least one blade. An elastomeric member is molded to the housing and the handle interconnecting the housing and the handle to form an integral unit. The elastomeric member includes a resilient skin contacting element that flexes to facilitate a pivotable movement of the housing relative to the handle between a biased neutral position and a flexed position and facilitates stretching of skin during a shaving stroke.
