Edwin Jagger | DE83 Double Edge Safety Razor Long Blue

Edwin Jagger is one of Europe’s premier manufacturers of luxury handcrafted shaving equipment. Every Edwin Jagger product is designed and hand-assembled in Sheffield, England, a city renowned for its rich industrial heritage. The Edwin Jagger DE83 Long Blue DE Safety Razor (Closed Comb) is a traditional double-edge safety razor that offers an eco-friendly, plastic-free alternative to disposable razors.

Crafted from high-quality polycarbonate, this razor features a sleek and modern blue finish. The handle is enhanced with durable, scratch-resistant chrome plating, while the collar and cap are engraved with “EDWIN JAGGER” and “SHEFFIELD, ENGLAND,” showcasing the razor’s premium craftsmanship and attention to detail.

Weighing 70g (2.5 oz), this razor has a substantial feel that promotes a smoother, more controlled shave. Heavier than a typical disposable razor, it allows the weight of the razor to do much of the work, helping it glide effortlessly across the skin with minimal pressure. This can reduce nicks, irritation, and razor burn while delivering a closer, more comfortable shave.

With an overall length of 101mm (4"), this extra-long safety razor is ideal for those who prefer a longer handle for added grip and maneuverability. The handle measures 93mm (3.7"), providing enhanced control during shaving. Its extended length also makes it an excellent option for reaching areas such as the backs of the legs and underarms.

The two-piece die-cast razor head is expertly engineered to provide a shave that is gentle on the skin while still delivering exceptional closeness and comfort. The classic Edwin Jagger closed comb head is chrome-plated and hand-polished before leaving the factory. Highly respected within the wet shaving community, this razor has earned a reputation for outstanding performance and a refined shaving experience.

Closed comb safety razors are the most popular type of double-edge razor available today. The term “closed comb” refers to the relatively straight safety bar, which features a series of small grooves along its length. This design minimizes blade exposure while maintaining excellent shaving efficiency, resulting in a mild yet precise shave. Its forgiving nature makes it an ideal choice for beginners, while experienced wet shavers appreciate it as a dependable option for daily use.

This razor includes one Feather Hi-Stainless blade to help you get started. Feather blades are Edwin Jagger’s recommended pairing, as their exceptional sharpness complements the razor head perfectly, delivering a clean and comfortable shave. All double-edge razor blades are manufactured to standardized dimensions, making any DE blade compatible with this razor. Replacement blades are widely available at supermarkets, drugstores, and specialty shaving retailers.
