Developed through a collaboration between OneBlade and PENSA Design, the Dawn Razor exemplifies a commitment to environmental responsibility, eliminating plastic completely in its materials and offering a simple, thoughtful and safe user experience in its recyclable stainless steel blades.
In addition to the blades, the OneBlade Dawn razor itself is designed and guaranteed to last for generations with its solid stainless steel and aluminum construction.
The Dawn Razor’s design is the result of thorough research into the needs of body shavers.
One of its standout features is its commitment to sustainability.
For that, the project has been awarded a 2024 Green Good Design Award by The Chicago Athenaeum Museum of Architecture and Design and The European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies.
The OneBlade Dawn Razor eliminates the need for disposable plastic razors, reducing environmental impact by using recyclable and long-lasting materials.
The EPA estimates that two billion plastic razors and cartridges are thrown away each year in the US alone, with the majority of those ending up in landfills or in the ocean.
It offers an elegant, balanced shaving experience, providing a close shave while minimizing the risk of cuts.
Additionally, the design includes an integrated stand for easy storage, reflecting its thoughtful engineering.
The unique geometry of the stainless steel OneBlade Pivoting Head and Quick-Change blade system, along with the unmatched precision of the Feather Japanese blades has been incorporated into an aluminum handle design with a unique geometry, designed for the needs of body shaving.
In the design process, the creators studied and documented the entire experience of body shaving from storage through all the moments of use, designing and engineering a handle that is nimble and comfortable in many grips.
