The Vector is the most compact and intuitive single-edge razor ever made. With its innovative center post design, the Vector boasts an incredibly sleek profile, matching the size of the Artist Club blades it uses. This unique feature gives the Vector exceptional maneuverability and precision in every shave. The Pinnacle of SE Design The Vector is an innovative three-piece safety razor that uses single-edge (SE) Artist Club-style blades. We designed the top cap with a Blackland innovation - the SlimPost - which allows the Vector to be as compact as possible with the head perfectly centered over the handle for optimal balance and control. This is a razor that gets under the nose and into every nook and cranny unlike anything else on the market.There's a reason that the Vector is widely regarded as the best single edge razor you can buy. Precision CNC Machining Each of the Vector's three pieces is CNC machined from solid stainless steel right here in the USA by the same family-run machine shop we've partnered with on every single razor we've ever sold. After machining, each piece receives multiple rounds of quality control both by our machinists and internally here at Blackland HQ to ensure that your razor looks and shaves the way it's meant to. Machined Finish Because we're so proud of the machining that goes into our razors, our machined finish flaunts the tool marks and patterns left behind in the razor by the CNC machines rather than removing or covering them. We believe that each and every mark cut into the steel tells the story of the Vector and the craftspeople who made it. To make sure it's beautiful, we painstakingly program the CNC machine path to ensure that a beautiful and consistent finish is left behind. Shaving Experience The Vector is designed to perform like an extension of your hand. The compact head and firm blade ensure that you always know exactly where the blade is and how it's engaging your skin. Artist Club blades come in a variety of performance styles, making the Vector adjustable to suit your personal preferences and needs. The Vector is the perfect razor for all men and women, regardless of experience level or hair type. Head shavers especially enjoy the Vector for its unparalleled control and intuitive shaving angle. Assembly Instructions: Hold the top cap with the post facing up. Slide the blade over the post until fully seated with the blade held by the two blade tabs. The cutting edge should face toward the thinnest portion of the top cap. Place the base plate onto the top cap, sandwiching the blade in place. Hold the head assembly together while threading on the handle. If the handle is misaligned, loosen until the threads realign before continuing to tighten. Reverse for disassembly. Blade Selection The Vector uses Artist Club-style blades. Thicker and with a cutting edge about 35% longer than double-edge blades, Artist Club blades are smooth, long-lasting, and vary in performance quite a bit, making the Vector even more versatile.
