It might be the kind of thing where you would have to check local ordinances. Another thing to consider is how you store and carry it. If it was a straight razor with a brush, tub of cream, or puck of soap, and maybe a paddle strop, all together as a kit, a law enforcement officer would look at it more favorably than if you had a straight razor stuck in your pocket.

I have to have stuff shipped, mainly by Aramex. They sometimes send me messages that the shipment has items that are prohibited in the country (Qatar) that I'm shipping to. They (Aramex) class the razor as a Knife. I have had the argument a couple of times, that a) It's not a Knife, and b) that you can purchase knives here, quite legally in any number of stores. I have managed to obtain the shipments each time, but I'm sure that sooner or later I'll lose one (they destroy the item).
I have never had a problem with the authorities here, it is just Aramex, playing it safe.
