The Pearl Flexi Adjustable Safety Razor (Open Comb) is a brass-made double edge safety razor designed for wet shavers who want control over how close and aggressive their shave feels. With six adjustable settings, it allows you to alter blade exposure to suit your beard growth, skin and preferred blade brand, while the open comb head is a style often favoured for thicker or coarser facial hair. It suits those moving on from a fixed-head razor and looking for a more tailored, traditional shaving experience.

Brass Construction for Weight and Durability

The Pearl Flexi is made from brass, a dense, durable metal commonly used in safety razor manufacturing for its weight and solidity.

This gives the razor a substantial, reassuring feel in the hand, helping you maintain steady control and even pressure throughout the shave.

Six Adjustable Settings for a Tailored Shave

The razor features six adjustable settings, allowing you to alter the gap between the blade and the safety bar.

Lower settings reduce blade exposure for a milder shave, while higher settings increase exposure for a closer cut. This means the razor can be tuned to suit different beard densities, skin sensitivities and blade brands, rather than offering a single fixed performance.

Open Comb Head for Thicker Growth

This version of the Pearl Flexi uses an open comb head rather than a closed comb or bar guard.

The open teeth lift and guide the hair into the blade before it is cut, a style many wet shavers find useful on thicker or longer growth. Combined with the adjustable settings, this gives you extra control over how the razor handles coarser facial hair.

How to Use

1. Set the razor to a low or medium setting if you are new to adjustable razors, increasing gradually as you become familiar with how it performs.
2. Insert a standard double edge (DE) blade into the razor head.
3. Prepare the skin with warm water and a lathered shaving soap or cream to soften the hair.
4. Shave using light pressure and short strokes, following the grain of your beard growth.
5. Rinse the blade regularly during the shave to clear away hair and lather.
6. Rinse your face with cool water afterwards and apply a post-shave balm or moisturiser.

Care & Maintenance

After each shave, rinse the razor head thoroughly to remove hair, lather and blade debris, then dry it completely before storing.

Keeping a brass razor dry helps prevent tarnishing or corrosion over time. Store it in a dry location, ideally in a stand or case, and replace the blade regularly to maintain shave quality.
