Wilkinson Sword is a historic brand specializing in personal care products, particularly shaving razors and blades. Originally founded in 1772 in the United Kingdom as a sword manufacturer, the company transitioned into razor production in the 19th century. Today, it stands as one of the major global competitors in the wet shaving market.

The global ownership of Wilkinson Sword is split geographically. In most of the world, including Europe as seen in this Spanish/European packaging, the brand is owned by Edgewell Personal Care, an American consumer goods corporation based in Connecticut. However, in the United States and some other markets, the equivalent products are sold under the brand name Schick. This particular product features a handle made with 60% recycled plastic, reflecting the brand's modern shift toward sustainability under Edgewell's management.
