A Better Shave Starts Here.
Make the switch from disposable cartridges to a razor designed to stay with you. The Reggie's Jupiter Aluminium Starter Set brings together a precision-machined British safety razor, a 10-blade sampler and a steel presentation box for £59.
Whether you're trying a safety razor for the first time, looking for a more considered everyday shave or choosing a gift that will actually be used, this set gives you a straightforward place to start.
Why switch from cartridge razors?
Cartridge razors are familiar, but replacement heads can be expensive and often lock you into one brand's system. A traditional double-edge safety razor works differently: you keep the handle and head, and replace only the thin blade when needed.
-
More choice, less commitment. Jupiter accepts standard double-edge blades from many manufacturers, so you're free to find the blade you prefer.
-
A considered everyday shave. Its mild 0.5 mm closed-comb head is designed to provide a smooth, controlled shaving experience without an overly aggressive feel.
-
Less disposable hardware. Instead of throwing away multi-part cartridge heads, you replace the metal blade.
-
A tool made to last. The aluminium razor is precision CNC-machined and designed for years of use.
Designed to make your first safety shave easier
Switching to a safety razor doesn't have to be complicated. Jupiter has a mild shaving character, a lightweight body and a textured handle for a secure grip. At approximately 40 g, it is easy to manoeuvre around the contours of your face.
The key difference from cartridge shaving is technique: use a light touch, keep the razor at a comfortable angle and take short, unhurried strokes. You don't need to press hard. As with any razor, results depend on your skin, hair and technique, but Jupiter is a welcoming starting point for learning the traditional approach.

Why the blade sampler matters
Not all double-edge blades feel the same. Their sharpness and feel can vary, and personal preference plays a big part in finding a comfortable shave. That's why we've included ten blades rather than leaving you to guess which ones to buy first.
Start with a fresh blade, take your time and try different options as you build confidence. Once you find a favourite, standard double-edge replacement blades are widely available — no proprietary cartridge system required.
Precision-engineered in Britain
Jupiter isn't simply styled to look like an engineering product. Its three metal components are precision CNC-machined in Britain from UK-sourced aerospace-grade 6082-T6 aluminium. That gives us control over the design, manufacture and finishing of the razor.
The material is lightweight and corrosion-resistant, while the textured grip offers confident handling. Its closed-comb, scalloped head has a 0.5 mm blade gap, chosen for a mild, controlled shaving character. This is real British manufacturing put to work in an everyday product.
Choose your colour. Keep it simple.
The Starter Set comes as a complete razor in your choice of Black, Blue, Clear, Red or Yellow. Just choose the colour you like and you're ready to go.
Prefer to mix different colours across the cap, base and handle? Our fully customisable Jupiter Aluminium is available separately for those who want to create their own combination.
A useful gift — not another disposable gadget
For someone curious about traditional shaving, the Starter Set takes away the guesswork. The razor, blades and presentation box are already together, making it a thoughtful introduction to a different shaving routine. It's equally suitable as a first safety razor or as a lightweight addition to an existing collection.

Frequently asked questions
Is the Jupiter suitable for a beginner?
Its mild closed-comb design makes it a sensible choice for someone learning to use a double-edge safety razor. Allow a little time to adjust your technique if you're coming from cartridges.
Do I need special Reggie's blades?
No. Jupiter uses widely available standard double-edge safety razor blades. Ten are included to help you get started.
How do I change the blade?
Carefully unscrew the handle, separate the head components and place a fresh blade onto the head, holding blades only by their short, unsharpened sides. Reassemble securely before shaving and dispose of used blades safely.
Is the Starter Set the same as the customisable Jupiter?
Both use the Jupiter Aluminium razor design. The Starter Set offers a complete, single-colour razor with a blade sampler at £59; the separate Jupiter Aluminium listing offers more freedom to customise the colour combination.
