Second day tried with,against,across the grains .got one Nick and result is BBS .Good news is now it comes with Parker shavette blades ,not the pathetic shark blades anymore .Try DE razor then I atcb video on shavette tips and take a leap of faith . You won't repent.You won't go back to other form of shaving .For best result wash face with warm water ,apply ore shave oil and use a good slick cream or soap

This is my very first shavette. I have been using a DE razor for quite some time and wanted to give shavette's a try. It does requires some time to get used to it. So expect some cuts and nicks at the beginning. I found these to be little more harsh than the DE razors.Parker razor quality is good considering the price. You have to be careful at the edges, as I realised its the sharp edge points of the exposed blade that causes most of the nicks and cuts.Overall, I am satisfied with the shavette.

normal

Manufacturing quality of the product is good but after inserting the blade in razor, the blades alignment is not in line. The spare blades provided with the razor have very low cutting edge and its very difficult to get a smooth shave with them.

Razor holds the blade firmly so it doesn't cause any cuts while shaving

Just different branding, but all material are same . Definitely both made in same factory. paid 1000 extra for just Parker branding

Great build and quality

The balance and precision is good. Beginners will find this straight razor easy to use and once you get a hang of it then you won't be going back to your regual cartridge razors.
