Metal Safety Razor – Zero Waste Shaving with 5 Platinum Blades
- Price
- $29
If you're ready to swap out disposable razors for something that actually lasts, this stainless steel safety razor from Desesh is a smart place to start. It gives a closer, more comfortable shave than multi-blade cartridge razors — and because refill blades cost a fraction of the price, it saves you money over time too. Comes with 5 premium platinum-coated blades included, and makes a thoughtful gift for anyone looking to simplify their shaving routine sustainably.
🌴 Features
- 🪒 Double-Sided Stainless Steel Handle: Weighted and ergonomic, so it sits comfortably in your hand and does the work without extra pressure.
- ✨ Platinum-Coated Blades: Rust-resistant and engineered for a smooth, close glide — each blade lasts 5–10+ shaves depending on use.
- 📦 5 Blades Included: Enough to last many people 6–12 months of regular shaving right out of the box.
- 🔄 Easy Blade Replacement: Twist-open razor head makes changing blades straightforward and safe.
- ♻️ Zero Waste Design: No plastic cartridges, no single-use handles — just one durable razor and recyclable metal blades.
- 🛒 Widely Available Refills: Replacement blades are stocked at most large grocery stores and pharmacies, so you're never caught short.
- 🎁 Plastic-Free Packaging: Ships in paper and cardboard — no unnecessary plastic in sight.
🌴 Benefits
- 💚 Gentler on Skin: One sharp blade means less tugging and pulling, which can help reduce razor bumps and irritation over time.
- 💰 Better Value Long-Term: Refill blades are far more affordable than disposable cartridges — a small upfront investment that pays off quickly.
- 🌍 A More Sustainable Routine: Cutting out plastic cartridges is one of the easiest swaps you can make for a lower-waste bathroom.
- 🎁 A Gift Worth Giving: A well-made razor with a timeless design — it's the kind of thoughtful gift that gets used every day.
🌴 How to Use
- Insert the Blade: Twist open the razor head, carefully place a platinum blade inside, then close and tighten securely.
- Prep Your Skin: Wet the area with warm water and apply a shaving soap, cream, or oil for a smooth surface.
- Shave with Short, Gentle Strokes: Hold the razor at a 30° angle and let the weight of the metal guide the blade — no need to press down. Shave with the grain first, then optionally follow with a second pass across or against the grain.
- Rinse as You Go: Rinse the razor head frequently during your shave to keep it clear and effective.
- Finish Up: Rinse skin with cool water, then apply a moisturiser or aftershave if desired.
🌴 Care Instructions
- 🚿 Rinse After Every Use: Clear soap residue and hair from the blade and razor head after each shave.
- 🧺 Dry Thoroughly: Pat dry with a towel and store in a dry spot to prevent mineral buildup.
- 🧼 Deep Clean Monthly: Carefully disassemble, clean with warm water and mild soap or a soft brush, then dry completely before reassembling.
- 🔁 Replace the Blade Every 5–10+ Shaves: Frequency depends on hair type and how often you shave.
- ♻️ Recycle Used Blades: Store spent blades in a blade bank or a sealed tin, then recycle with metal waste.

About Desesh
🌿 Welcome to Desesh.
We are really glad you found us.
Desesh was built on a simple but powerful belief: making more sustainable choices in your daily life should not be complicated, expensive, or guilt-ridden. It should be easy, accessible, and something to feel genuinely good about.
Our Story
Like a lot of people, we spent years becoming increasingly aware of the environmental impact of everyday routines — the plastic bottles, the synthetic ingredients, the single-use packaging that piles up week after week without a truly easy alternative in sight.
And we noticed something frustrating. Most of the conversation around sustainability was built on fear. Fear marketing, guilt, and anxiety-inducing messaging designed to make people feel bad about choices they often had very little power to change. Walk into any grocery store and ask yourself — what genuinely sustainable, plastic-free options do you actually have? For most people in most places, the honest answer is: not many.
That gap — between growing environmental awareness and the lack of real, accessible alternatives — is exactly why Desesh exists.
What We Believe
🌱 Progress is better than perfection.
We will never use fear or guilt to sell our products. That is a promise. We believe that every small, positive step forward matters — and that building a more sustainable routine is a journey, not an overnight transformation. We are here to make that journey easier, not to make you feel worse about where you are starting from.
We want Desesh to feel like a helpful friend who has done the research for you — not another voice adding to the noise of environmental anxiety.
What We Do
🛍️ At Desesh, we have done the hard work of sourcing, testing, and curating a collection of plastic-free and eco-friendly personal care and home products that genuinely work — so you do not have to spend hours researching alternatives yourself.
Every product in our collection is chosen with intention. Across our entire range we use natural alternatives to artificial fragrances and colors — including essential oils and minerals — because we believe you deserve to know exactly what is going onto your skin and into your home. We actively encourage you to read our ingredient lists. Transparency is not a marketing strategy for us — it is simply how we do business.
Our Standards
🌿 Every Desesh product is held to a consistent set of values:
♻️ Plastic-free or significantly reduced plastic packaging
🌱 Natural ingredients — no artificial fragrances, no synthetic colors
🧪 Clean, transparent ingredient lists we are proud to share
🌍 Eco-conscious manufacturing and supply chain choices
📦 Minimal, biodegradable, or recyclable packaging wherever possible
We are not perfect — and we will never claim to be. But every decision we make is guided by a genuine commitment to doing better, and we are always working to improve.
Where We Are Based
🏝️ Desesh is headquartered in Honolulu, Hawaii. To get products to our customers as quickly as possible — and to reduce the environmental impact of long-distance shipping — we partner with a third-party warehouse in North Carolina, keeping us geographically closer to most of our customers across the continental United States.
Our three main US manufacturing partners are also based on the East Coast, allowing us to keep production close to home. Some of our accessory products are currently manufactured outside of the US — something we are actively working to evolve as our brand grows.

The shipping rate is calculated and displayed at checkout. Free shipping is available for orders over $49.00 for Shakers members of our reward program, and with no minimum, for Makers members (We can't offer free shipping when the lowest shipping cost exceeds $10).
