The Consumer Product Safety Commission says Gillette has issued a recall of about 87,000 of their disposable razors due to laceration and injury hazards.

The recall affects the 4-count pack and the Daisy 12 + 1 Venus Simply3 razors.

The CPSC says a problem during manufacturing resulted in the misalignment of the blades in the razors, posing a higher risk of cuts during normal use.
