The Henson AL13-M puts an end to shaving irritation and cuts, while also making your skin feel comfortable and smooth. We created this to give you a whole new shaving experience unlike any other. Your skin will feel amazing after using this razor.

Our medium razor has slightly more blade exposure and a wider blade gap than the regular Henson AL13. This allows the medium to handle thicker and longer hair.

Best for: A slightly more aggressive shave.

Made in Canada.
We design, manufacture and package the Henson in Canada.

Lifetime warranty.
Buy once, use forever.

Gentle on skin.
Simple to use and lets you shave without hurting your skin.

AS9100
Manufactured at our aerospace facility in Ontario, Canada, our razor is built with the same AS9100 aerospace standards required to create satellite components.

Blade Exposure
Our blade exposure and blade angle are precisely machined to tolerances as tight as +/-0.00025" to provide a close shave with little, if any, irritation.

Light weight
At 1.3 oz., this razor is ultra-lightweight and extremely agile, yet completely proficient, and is a joy to use. It is economically machined and coated with Type II anodize, which gives this razor the looks you want with the protection you need.

Shaving is a geometry problem.
Don't worry, we've done the math so you don't have to.

With a blade that only sticks out roughly 3/4 the thickness of a human hair (0.0023" or 58 microns), this razor eliminates all the unnecessary blade exposure. We've also incorporated the optimum shaving angle into the head design. By focusing on repeatability, we've virtually eliminated any learning curve associated with this razor.  People used to using a multi-blade cartridge razor will be surprised how easy the transition is.

Benefits:

  • Lifetime Warranty - Henson razors are machined to last. Buy once, use forever, and pass it down from generation to generation.
  • No Planned Obsolescence - Our razor works with any standard double edge blade you can buy almost anywhere - local supermarkets, shaving shops or online. No subscriptions. No proprietary blades.
  • Much Cheaper to Own - With blades that cost pennies, most people will spend $2-3 per year on blades.

The hype is true - at least in my case

Several years ago, I tried to get away from the multi blade, replacement head razors available in stores and the online clubs by trying "olde timey" safety razors. After suffering with three razors and a multitude of different blades, I gave up. I have a "Bermuda Triangle" of moles on my right cheek and those inflexible blades didn't work for me. I tried many different soaps and oils too, but nothing worked. So I gave up and went back to the 4 and 5 blades with the lubricant strip. Some weeks ago, I started seeing Henson ads in my feeds and did a little more research. I ordered an AL13, medium from Maggard's and I can report so far, so good. They just may be onto something with their new design. The first shave, I did get a little razor burn, but no nicks. I've used with it four times now and still nick free.

Henson medium razor - best in my rotation

Before buying the Henson medium, I owned these razors: Karve, Gillette Tech, Timeless 0.68, Rocnel 2019 mild, Feather AS-D2, Weber, Vector SE, Alpha Outlaw. To cut to the chase, the Henson medium is now my go to as I have not shaved with another razor since getting the Henson. The blade locks in nicely. Although the razor is relatively light I have no issues, the lightness may be a benefit as it slows my shave. As described in the product info, the blade exposure, while minimal, is perfect for me. 3 passes and BBS. A winner and I got a nephew who has sensitive skin to buy one and he loves it too.

Henson razor perfection

With half a dozen mild razors in my shave den, I figured I was set for life, keep the wife happy with a small razor collection. She put her foot down at 50 soaps. I expect and get great mild shaves from my Feather AS-D2, Vector, Rocnel mild, Weber, Timeless 0.68, Krave A. But I bought a Henson medium, a razor I've been looking for: the holy grail. The Henson medium razor has the mildness of a Feather, precision of the Timeless, feel of the Vector, Krave and Weber - all attributes all in one. The Henson is easy to navigate in tight spots under my nose. I've shaved with the Henson for a week and have no nicks or weepers. The blade feel is beyond words - it is perfect. Please don't misunderstand this review, the Timeless, Feather, Rocnel, Vector, Krave and Weber are terrific razors, no buyers remorse here. But, imho, if you are looking for perfection, maybe the Henson razor is for you too.
