Product Overview

A solid metal cartridge razor built for the twin-blade Trac II system. Taconic publishes the compatibility plainly: it accepts Gillette Trac II blades or Personna Pivot Plus blades, and it ships with ten Personna Pivot Plus cartridges included.

The handle is chrome plated all metal with ridges for grip, 4.9 inches long at 3.0 oz., which is where the heavy in the hand feel Taconic describes comes from. Twin-blade refills also cost less than modern four and five blade cartridges, in Taconic’s words.

What This Razor Does

A twin-blade cartridge on a real metal handle splits the difference between a safety razor and a modern disposable: cartridge convenience, but with weight doing the work instead of pressure, and refills that stayed cheap when five-blade systems did not.

Taconic states the solid metal construction gives a heavy in the hand feel that delivers an extremely smooth and close shave, and that refill cartridges for it cost less than modern four and five blade cartridges. Those are Taconic’s claims for its own razor.

Who This Is Best For

Trac II users
The classic twin system, still in production, with ten cartridges in the box to start.
Disposable upgraders
Same cartridge convenience, but a 3 oz. metal handle instead of hollow plastic.
Refill cost watchers
Taconic prices this system’s refills below modern 4-5 blade cartridges.

How To Load and Use

Snap a Trac II compatible cartridge onto the head until it clicks, shave with light pressure and let the weight of the handle do the work, and press the release to swap cartridges. Ten Personna Pivot Plus cartridges are included to start you off.

Replacement blades: any Gillette Trac II or Personna Pivot Plus cartridge fits, per Taconic’s published compatibility.

Care and Storage

Rinse the razor after each shave and stand it to dry. Chrome plated metal asks for nothing more; just do not leave it sitting in water.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which cartridges fit it?
Gillette Trac II blades or Personna Pivot Plus blades, as published by Taconic.
Are blades included?
Yes. Taconic publishes ten Personna Pivot Plus blade cartridges included with the razor. Note they are Personna Pivot Plus cartridges, which fit Trac II systems, rather than Gillette-branded Trac II blades.
How heavy is it?
3.0 oz. on a 4.9 inch handle, as published by Taconic. That is the heavy in the hand feel Taconic describes.
Why does the weight matter?
A heavy handle shaves with its own mass, so you press less, and less pressure is where most cartridge-razor irritation goes away.
Is it cheaper to run than a modern cartridge razor?
Taconic states the refills cost less than modern four and five blade cartridges, and twin-blade cartridges are among the cheapest still made.
What is the handle made of?
Chrome plated all metal with ridges for grip, as published by Taconic. Taconic does not publish the base metal underneath the chrome, so we do not claim one.
Where is it made?
Taconic does not publish a country of origin for this razor, so we do not claim one.
Is this a safety razor?
No. It is a cartridge razor: the twin blade comes as a sealed cartridge that snaps on and off, with no loose blades to handle.
