Single-Edge Razor

$185.00
$290.00

These razors feature an experimental PVD finish that didn't quite work out. So instead of selling them for a premium like we had planned, we're discounting them heavily. This is your chance to own an almost amazing finish for a definitely amazing price.

PVD, or physical vapor deposition, is an incredibly thin, strong coating that gives parts exceptional resistance to scratching without impact the tolerances or fit. 

Expect minor color inconsistencies, small plate loss around the threaded post, and/or hazing of the finish. All razors function perfectly and do not feature serious defects. Final sale only. No returns.

 

The Vector is the most compact and intuitive single-edge razor ever made. Our innovative center post allows the Vector head to be no bigger than the Artist Club blades it uses, giving the Vector unparalleled maneuverability and shaving precision.

For a lighter Vector experience check out the Vector Titanium!

 

 

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.

Assembly

  • 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. Below is a comprehensive list of all blades that are compatible with the Vector. Proper fit for any blade not on this list cannot be guaranteed.

BladeNotes
Feather ProfessionalThe standard Artist Club blade. If you are unsure of where to start, start here. Middle-of-the-road aggressiveness.
Feather ProGuardThis is the Feather Professional with an added guard, reducing aggressiveness. Milder than the Pro for those with sensitive skin and/or light beards.
Feather Pro SuperThe most aggressive Artist Club blade on the market. The Pro Super is similar to a Feather Pro, but it has increased blade exposure, meaning the blade sticks out from the head more. This makes the Pro Super the most aggressive and efficient AC blade.
Feather SoftGuardA mild blade with a guard and reduced blade exposure.
Kai Captain Titan ProTouch MGLike the Feather ProGuard, this blade is guarded for a mild and smooth shave.
Kai Captain Titan MildAs the name suggests, this blade is on the mild side of the spectrum, but not overly so.
Kai CaptainAn uncommon blade similar in performance to the Feather Pro, possibly out of production.
KamisoriAn uncommon blade, possibly out of production.
Kai Captain SharpbladeAn uncommon blade, possibly out of production.
