The invention relates to a method of manufacturing a cutting member (6) of a shaver (1). The method comprises the steps of providing a plate-shaped carrier (10), cutting at least one cutting element (9a, 9b) free from the carrier except for a residual connection between a base (15, 23) of the cutting element and the carrier, and bending the cutting element relative to the carrier. According to the invention the steps of cutting free and bending are performed simultaneously using a tool (11) having a combined punching and bending effect. By using such a tool the action of cutting free is obtained by a tearing process which does not lead to a free space and a loss of material between the cutting element (9a, 9b) and the carrier (10). As a result the strength of the carrier is not reduced by such a free space or loss of material.
