Timeline of United States inventions (1890–1945) installing driven conveyor belts that could produce a Model T in ninety-three minutes. 1901 Safety razor (disposable) A safety razor protects the skin from all but the edge of the blade while shaving skin. King Camp Gillette, a traveling hardware salesman of Fond du Lac, Wisconsin invented the double-edged, disposable safety razor attached to a re-usable razor handle. Beforehand, dull razors were taken to barbers for sharpening.
