Highlights
Quality
Its my first safety razor but the quality is great and its very easy to travel with
The build quality is excellent and sturdy
Ill keep it for traveling but it just do not compare to the quick and close shave i can get with the heavier 99r
Price
I bought this due to parker being a known brand and the fact that this price is amazing when compared to cvs or something similar
The quality this offers for the price is good and its exceptionally easy to replace blades
Competitiveness
The parker polishes up when i use brasso metal polish
Much cheaper overall compared to conventional junk
Used with proraso soap and i dont think ill be going back to cartridges anytime soon
