    Straight razor - One very sharp blade
    Shavette - Shaped like a straight razor, but uses one disposable blade
    DE - Not entirely sure, but based on previous posts, I'm guessing it's a safety razor which uses two disposable blades at the same time

    Actually, the DE uses one blade that has two edges (I believe DE and Safety Razor are the same thing). Correct on the other two.

    Correct answers/pics above for shavette and DE.
    DE stands for double edge. See pic above and for a closer look >>> THE Blade of blades ! - YouTube

    All 3 come in different styles and configurations but basically........

    That's correct. DE = double edge safety razor
