Henson AL13 Aircraft Aluminum Safety Razor for Mild, Comfortable Shaving
The Henson AL13 Aircraft Aluminum safety razor is the mild AL13 model, built for shavers who want a smoother, lower-irritation shave without cartridge razor drag. It is a strong fit for sensitive skin, daily shaving, first-time safety razor users, and anyone who wants better control with a single blade.
Henson’s fixed blade angle and low blade exposure help the razor glide across the skin with less scraping. The aircraft aluminum handle keeps the razor light, precise, and easy to rinse clean after every pass.

Smart Design That Feels Safe
The AL13 2.0 combines the best parts of two classic tools.
The closeness of a straight razor.
The safety of a traditional safety razor.
It uses a simple two-piece design with a handle and head.
This keeps the razor easy to use and easy to clean.
You get a close shave without the fear.
Blade Control That Reduces Irritation
How the blade touches your skin matters.
The AL13 2.0 uses:
-
A fixed 30-degree blade angle
-
Very small blade exposure
-
Enough space for hair and lather to pass through
This lets the blade glide over the skin.
Hair is cut cleanly at skin level.
There is less pulling.
Less scraping.
And far less irritation.
This makes it ideal for:
-
Sensitive skin
-
Daily shaving
-
Legs and underarms
-
Other delicate areas
Built With Extreme Precision
Every AL13 2.0 is made in an aerospace-grade facility.
This allows very tight tolerances.
The blade sits in the same position every time you shave.
That consistency is key to comfort.
Henson also worked with RK Blades to create blades that match this design.
You can use any standard double-edge blade.
But the razor performs best with RK blades.
No More Clogged Razors
Multi-blade razors clog easily.
This reduces performance and wastes cartridges.
The AL13 2.0 is designed with open exit channels.
Hair and shaving cream rinse away fast.
A quick rinse under water is enough.
No tapping.
No scraping.
No frustration.
A Better Long-Term Choice
Owning a Henson razor is a smart investment.
You invest in:
-
Better skin comfort
-
Better shave quality
You also save money.
Double-edge blades cost far less than cartridges.
Many users reduce blade costs by up to 90% over time.
Clean Design That Looks Good
The AL13 2.0 is made from precision-milled aluminium.
It feels light, balanced, and solid in the hand.
It is available in several modern colours.
The design is clean and simple.
This is a razor you will enjoy using and displaying.
Better for the Environment
The AL13 2.0 is built to last a lifetime.
-
No plastic cartridges
-
Recyclable stainless-steel blades
-
Durable metal construction
This reduces waste and plastic use over time.
It is a better choice for your skin and the planet.
RK Blades (Primary Blade Recommendation)
For best results, we recommend pairing the AL13 with RK stainless steel double-edge razor blades, developed to match the razor’s tight tolerances and deliver a smoother, more comfortable shave-especially for sensitive skin.
Razor Stand (Storage & Care)
To protect your razor and allow it to dry properly between shaves, store it on a Henson razor stand, designed to keep the blade safe and maintain performance over time.
Travel Case (Primary Travel Accessory)
If you travel or go to the gym often, the Henson safety razor travel case protects your AL13 from damage while keeping it dry and secure on the move.
Leather Head Cover (Secondary Protection Accessory)
For lightweight protection without a full case, a leather safety razor head cover offers simple blade protection during storage or short trips.
