I'm allergic to nickel and recently my legs have started itching for days after shaving. Does anyone know where I can get nickel-free razors or do any of the leading brands not use nickel? Please don't post information about hair removal creams or waxing, I'm only interested in finding razors. Thanks

This is a doozy. I looked online and couldn't find anything, but was wondering about electric shavers? I use one on my legs and love it. I couldn't find out what the foils were made of though. Good luck.

Panasonic make a range of electric razors with nickel-free foils, including their ES383 travel razor and 'Titanium' range. Haven't found anyone else yet.

I found that an old fashioned double edge made from carbon steel works ok. Its not great and they don't stay sharp for long, but I don't get the rash. They are called Treet blades and are made in Pakistan (they are blue). I have an old sharpener / stropper to touch them up. You can get one shave per blade - rash free.
