The Goodfellas’ smile Legion slant safety razor

The Goodfellas’ smile project for the development of the Slant safety razor head took nearly a year, but the result is, in fact, excellent. A slant head that can be used every 1-2 days, extremely delicate, so much so that you don’t feel it on the skin, but at the same time effective and smooth. The head is made of high-quality satin die-cast Zamak.

The handle, in AISI 303 stainless steel with hard chrome treatment, makes the product scratch-resistant, rust-resistant, and potentially eternal. Moreover, the extremely refined design makes this safety razor a real must-have.

All The Goodfellas’ smile razors follow European production directives and always use quality materials in the production phase.

The slant type safety razor or oblique razor is a particular variant of the traditional safety razor. Its distinctive feature is the blade, which rather than being positioned parallel to the handle, is fixed in a tilted or twisted position. This inclination acts a bit like the blade of a guillotine, cutting the hairs at an angle rather than perpendicular.

The Slant Razor:

1) Efficiency: the slant razor is particularly effective in shaving, especially for particularly hard beards. Its slanted cutting action allows better shaving with fewer passes.
2) Less irritation: thanks to the way it cuts the hairs, the slant razor can cause less irritation to the skin.
3) Technique: unlike the traditional double-blade safety razor (closed guard), the use of the slant razor may require a longer learning curve to make the most of it.
For this reason, despite its advantages, the slant razor may not be suitable for everyone, especially for those with particularly sensitive skin or for those new to traditional shaving.

Tightening a safety razor correctly does not mean cranking it down hard until you damage the threads. Proper tightening usually involves a small final turn once you’ve reached the stop. In addition, to preserve the handle’s threading, it’s recommended to always join the head and handle while keeping them perfectly straight and aligned.

A well-maintained safety razor lasts a long time and stays looking good, which is why cleaning after every use is an essential step. Daily maintenance doesn’t require complicated procedures: after shaving, rinse thoroughly with warm water and a mild cleanser (such as hand soap or shampoo), then dry each part carefully.

We also recommend not leaving the blade installed and dirty in the razor. If it stays damp and covered with residue, the blade can start micro-oxidation; over time these marks can transfer or leave stains on the razor as well, worsening the appearance of the finish.

Special attention for zamak razors: with this material it’s important to disassemble, rinse, and dry every single component after use. In particular, the top cap thread is an area where water and residue can easily build up: if neglected, over time this can trigger corrosion and wear, eventually weakening the thread and compromising functionality.

To protect materials and finishes, avoid any “extreme” methods: do not boil the razor, do not put it in the dishwasher, and do not use harsh products or aggressive procedures. Even on high-quality razors, these practices can damage chrome plating, anodizing, and other coatings.

Do you have a brass razor and want to restore its shine? A simple remedy is to soak the components in a bowl with lemon juice for about 10–15 minutes. Then rinse and dry with a soft, scratch-free cloth for a clean, bright finish.
