Claim:
A wet shaving razor comprising a cartridge having a length wherein said cartridge comprises: a) an upper frame comprising 1) a blade frame; 2) a shaving blade joined to said blade frame where said blade extends lengthwise along said cartridge; 3) an upper face that surrounds said blade frame; and 4) one or more serially arranged rear spring elements, each element having a proximate and distal end such that said proximate end is joined adjacent a top edge of said upper face; b) a sub-frame upon which said upper frame is resiliently mounted at its bottom edge near a front edge of said sub-frame wherein said sub-frame further comprises front spring elements; and c) a catch plate joined to said distal ends, said catch plate causes said rear spring elements to foldably engage with a rear edge of said sub-frame to provide removably secured rear spring elements; and wherein said front spring elements and rear spring elements oppose local deformation of the cartridge under shaving forces encountered during shaving.
