Method and apparatus for opening slits of uneven lengths in the concentric circular shaving sections of an external cutting member that is used in an electric razor using a rotary cutter that cuts the shaving sections of the external cutting member in radial directions as the external cutting member is rotated around its axis by a predetermined angle with a use of an index device. The differences in the length of the slit are obtained by changing the cutting angle of the rotary cutter relative to the external cutting member.

Why it's free to use
- Filed September 20, 1993 and granted March 9, 1999. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended September 20, 2013.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by September 20, 2015.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
