Parker Variant Adjustable Closed Comb Safety Razor

Nice Razor, But a Bit Aggressive

I've got some of my closest shaves with this razor. However, it is a bit more aggressive than I would like. I have to be careful shaving sideways on my neck and around the mouth area. I should note that I use Derby Special razor blades in all of my safety razors. There is a minor manufacturing flaw with my razor. It looks like the flaw probably came from the mold used to form the razor.

Great shave, just like my other Variant!

I purchased this razor, because it is an Anniversary Edition of the Parker Variant Razor. I own a variant already, so I knew this would be a very gentle razor! I broke it in, with a Gillette Nacet blade, as it is mild in all my other razors I have in rotation. This razor shaved me nicely, with no nics or abrasions, the setting was on 1, and after the second shave, I was amazed at how clean I was, with only my normal spots, that are taken care of in the " clean up " finale' With the correct choice in blade, this delivered a great smooth shave, Very happy I purchased it !

Great looking adjustable from Parker. I love the pop of gold on the black. It’s well made and the quality is outstanding. It adjusts properly and shaves big! Fantastic razor. Well done!
