That post-shave discomfort
you’ve always accepted as "inevitable."

Your usual skincare stings.
Your skin feels dry or shows unexplained redness.

The cause may not be your skin type alone, but the strain from the tools you use every day.

Sharp blades designed for a close shave can also strip away the vital protective layer of your skin.

Since it’s a daily ritual, why not invest a little more in your skin’s health?

Our Promise of "Gentleness"

The gentle razor blade with micro-guards

Peace of Mind: Zero Direct Blade Contact.

Micro-guards, almost invisible to the naked eye, act as a protective cushion between the blade and your skin. Instead of scraping, it feels like a gentle stroke, removing only what’s unnecessary.

An Exceptionally Smooth Glide.

A micro-coating applied to the blade's surface minimizes friction. It glides effortlessly across your skin, completely free from the uncomfortable sensation of tugging or pulling.

An artisan meticulously inspecting razor blades

Since our founding in 1867 in Seki City, Gifu Prefecture,
we have worked behind the scenes to support leading Japanese skincare brands like Shiseido,
manufacturing products that meet the most rigorous standards.

Even as times change and automated machinery becomes more common,
we will never let go of our core belief: "Because it directly touches your skin, we want you to use it with absolute peace of mind."

That is why, for The Gentle Razor,
the final step is always in the hands of our master artisans.
They meticulously inspect each and every blade with their own eyes.


We deliver to your hands only the "gentleness"
that has been carefully examined and verified by ours.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will it really prevent razor burn?

Our razor features an ultra-fine guard structure that wraps around the blade, preventing direct, harsh contact with your skin.

Because the guards are finely and evenly spaced, they distribute the pressure applied to the skin. Even if the razor accidentally slips sideways, the blade is designed not to dig in, significantly minimizing the risk of cuts and irritation.

Note: Depending on your skin type, daily condition, and shaving method, you may still experience slight sensitivity. For the most comfortable shave, we highly recommend using a shaving gel or cream and gliding the razor gently without pressing hard against your skin.

How long does one razor last?

While the lifespan varies depending on hair thickness, density, coarseness, and shaving frequency, NIPPON RIKI KOGYO recommends replacing the razor after approximately 15 uses.


However, regardless of the number of uses, if you notice a decrease in sharpness or feel any tugging, pulling, or discomfort while shaving, it is a sign that it is time for a new one.

For a consistently comfortable and skin-friendly shave, we suggest replacing your razor as soon as you feel a change in its performance.

Is it safe for sensitive skin?

Yes. Our razor is designed with a fine micro-guard over the blade to minimize direct contact and reduce stress on the skin, making it an excellent choice for those with sensitive skin.

Note: Skin sensitivity can vary day by day. Please use a shaving gel or cream, and shave gently without applying excessive pressure.

What makes the "Yasashii Razor" (Gentle Razor) eco-friendly?

The Yasashii Razor is designed with both your skin and the planet in mind.
First, the blade and handle are designed to be easily separated, allowing for the proper disposal of each part. This significantly reduces environmental impact compared to fully integrated, disposable razors.

Furthermore, the handle is made from biodegradable plastic. This material is designed to ultimately break down into water and carbon dioxide through the action of microorganisms in natural environments, such as soil and oceans. This ensures that even if it were to accidentally end up in the environment, it returns to nature rather than persisting as plastic waste for centuries.
