Parker Variant Adjustable Safety Razor Graphite

Product Review (submitted on 18 May 2019):

So......... very new to single bladed shaving having used Gillette Mach 3 since they came out. I’ve always used used king of shaved gel too and always shaved by feel in the shower (very close shave no stubble every day)
So I’m still getting used to the razor - my wife thinks it’s like being with h a teenager judging by how many cuts I’ve had so far ???? but it’s getting better - it’s not as easy to get completely smooth as with a Mach 3 but it can be done with care- also post shave my skin just feels different - odd but true.
This is my first safety razor and I think I’m hooked - it takes home to learn, time to perfect and the geek in me likes that. It’s obviously a skill that can be refined over time- will I stick with the Parker, maybe maybe not- I’ll definitely buy another razor for comparison purposes because I’m that kind of person.so far very happy with the razor and both the Japanese and Derby blades I bought for it. Also nice to reduce the plastics I use just a little.
