The BAKblade patented blades are designed to shave body hair which in most areas tends to be less coarse than facial hair. The DryGlide technology is designed to control razor flexibility in a manner that allows a lighter and less rigid friction between razor and skin surface compared to what is commonly found with facial razors. With the BAKblade DryGlide customers have the option of either DRY shaving (shaving without the use of a shaving cream or gel) or WET shaving (shaving with the use of a shaving cream or gel).
