Shave Kit

Shave Kit was a UK subscription razor brand that offered forces personnel their first month's subscription for £1 through a partnership with Forces Discount Offers. The brand no longer appears to be actively operating — the Shave Kit website and subscription service is not currently accessible. If looking for a shaving subscription with forces-relevant savings, alternatives exist through other UK brands.

Is Shave Kit Still Operating?

Shave Kit was a UK-based subscription shaving service that delivered razor handles, blades and shaving products on a monthly basis. As of 2026, the brand does not appear to be actively trading. Forces personnel who previously used Shave Kit will need to source blades and shaving supplies through alternative providers.

Shaving Alternatives for Forces Personnel

For razor and shaving product savings for the armed forces community, the most relevant current options are:

Gillette — the UK's largest razor brand, with a subscription service and seasonal sales of up to 50% off. Free starter kit deals have appeared for forces members through third-party platforms historically.

Harry's — a UK-available subscription razor brand with competitive starter kit pricing for new customers. No confirmed standing forces discount but regular promotional codes for new sign-ups.

Wilkinson Sword and Schick — widely available in UK pharmacies and supermarkets including Boots and Superdrug, where forces community members can access loyalty points and occasional multibuy deals.

For grooming and health product deals more broadly, the health and beauty forces discounts section covers current savings across brands.

About Shave Kit

Shave Kit launched as a direct-to-consumer subscription razor brand in the UK, competing with Dollar Shave Club and Harry's. The model delivered razor handles and blade cartridges on a rolling monthly schedule, with the brand emphasising quality over gimmicks. A first-month trial for £1 was offered to forces personnel through Forces Discount Offers, with free delivery and a free handle included. The subscription ran on standard monthly pricing after the introductory period.
