 My Parker (2010 Model), 99R (TTO) Razor Reveiw August 25, 2010

Price: Rating: 10
Hey...what can I say...for around 30 bucks w/ 10 Blades...I'd say I got a real good deal (if I don't say so myself)
Quality: Rating: 9
I can say that Parker has greatly increased its quality and durability in their Razors (especially the 2010 Models). I have been using this for many weeks now and have no complaints...I'm really pleased with this Razor. Although not Stainless Steel like my old Gillette Fat-Boy, I believe their 2010 design with brass over nickel plating could stand up with the best and more expensive Razors out there.
User Friendly: Rating: 9
I believe one the best aspect of this Razor is the weight...not yet a monster but at 3.2oz, it has more weight than my Parker 96R, which I like a lot and is a `plus' for ease of your shave.
Grip: Rating: 9.5
The grip on this Razor is very `sure' even when wet and the handle is big enough because this Razor has a 4in textured (machine-turned), handle to `fit' even the Wet-Shaver with `Bear Claws' for hands. The `Barber Pole' is what is the neatest thing about this Razor...it just feels soooo great in my hand.
Ease of Blade Replacement:Rating: 9
The ease of Blade replacement is `quick, easy and flawless' with the TTO doors opening with no slippage and/or `creakiness' and is `tight' when closed usinbg the knob on the end.
Aggressiveness: Rating: Rating: 10
This Razors performance in terms of aggressiveness is outstanding, depending on the `angle' you use. By far, the most aggressive Double-Edge Razor I have ever used (certainly more aggressive than my Parker 96R).
Adjustability: Rating: Rating: 9
The edge `gap' on both sides with the TTO doors closed is very even and the blade (I use "Shark" SS Blades), edge is evenly exposed, (although on my Parker 96R...there is a bit of unevenness with regard to the blade edge being exposed). Also, depending on the angle you use, this Razor may / will need in my opinion...your most special attention, because...one `hurried' slip and OMG ...you're may get `cut' pretty bad (may have to `call-in-sick' that day).
Balance: Rating: Rating: 8
The Barber Pole Handle is beautiful to say the least...a `beauty' to behold. It's heavy enough not to affect the balance (it seems the Parker for 2010 did some really good R&D this time), in my opinion a very well made and `fun' Razor to use.
Thanx :-)

I've been using this razor for a couple of weeks now and I really love it. It is simple to begin with, feels great in my large hands, and provides a fantastic, close shave.
I've used the included blades but have also just started trying the Derby Extra and have been a little happier with those so far.
I read of concern with quality of some parker razors, but that seems to have been a thing of the past. If you're new to double edge safety razor wetshaving and are looking for a well built, inexpensive razor to use, look no further.
I recommend this heartily with no reservations.
Excellent razor! July 28, 2010

This is my first double edge safety razor. I have very sensitive skin and therefore have always been in pursuit of the best shave for my type of skin. I started shaving 20+ years ago with disposable double blade razors. I later moved on to Mach 3, then 5 blade razors, and more recent expensive electric razors. I have also tried various shaving foams, creams, lotions, etc. I have never been satisfied with any shaving product. Until now! After much research, I decided to try a double edge safety razor. I bought this particular razor along with a Parker badger brush and a glycerin shaving soap. I must say, I am amazed at what I was able to achieve with my first try. I actually did not get any skin irritation! I am very happy that I was finally able to find something that actually works! Now, I am able to shave everyday without worries. If you dont buy this product, at least buy another double edge razor. I'm sure they will work better than anything else that's out there.
Parker 99r Razor = A Winner! July 7, 2010

I have used this razor quite a bit lately and am extremely well pleased with it. I've tried it with several different combinations of blades/soaps/creams and it has not failed to deliver a close comfortable shave each time. It is a large, heavy razor that suits me well and I enjoy it. Do yourself a favor and get one, you won't regret it.
