Parker Adjustable Injector Razor – Single‑Edge Safety Razor with Dial‑Control...

Yes it is the version 2, version 1 did not have the Parker logo etched on the handle. Bear with me here, this may be long winded ... Loading this razor is like loading any other injector. Watch carefully as you load a razor, most issues with dull razors are due to the blade edge dragging across the guard cap on the outside edge. To prevent this issue when you insert the injector, slightly twist the the key counter clock wise as this will open the gap and allow the blade to be inserted without the razors cutting edge rubbing against the guard cap on the loading guard cap side. After loading the blade ensure that each end is seated into the guard caps. If they are not seated equal you can have a different gap at each end which will give a bad shave. One side will bite into your skin deeper than the shallow side. Another issue with these types of razor is beard preparation. Hydrated soft beards produce better results. For me canned cream is a no go, a good hydrating shave soap is key. This is not your faster multi blade, canned goo shave here. Think old school grandfather shaving. Enjoy the preparation, the shave, the time to take care of personal grooming without any rush. Shave angle is important with this razor. Feel the blade against your face, use less pressure than a multi blade cartridge, adjust your angle. Once again this is a shaver designed in 1926 so use some old fashioned technique. Now onto the razor itself: Pro's: Adjustable, Quick change out of blades, Handle has textured surface on inside for better grip while wet. Well built, mostly metal construction for durability. Con's: May not be good beginner razor, especially for those used to multi blade cartridges. Loading blades without attention to detail can make this razor seem inferior while shaving by dulling the blade during loading. May not shave well with an under prepared beard routine.

This is version 2 that I'm reviewing... I purchased this along with the Supply SE (3.0 with the fins) and the Supply Pro. I wanted to compare which one I liked most, thinking that as the least expensive (this one), it may very well be the best. Unfortunately, there isn't much I like about this razor. Coming from a Rockwell 6c (DE) double edge safety razor, this has A LOT of blade feel. It irritated my skin, and didn't shave very well (not as smooth or close as my former double edge safety razor). The Supply razors have now arrived, and OMG, their marketing materials are not exaggerated at all, they feel incredibly safe (no blade feel at all) and they shave smoother and the blades last WAY longer than DE blades. I shave my whole body in the shower and I could feel the double edge blade starting to pull about half way through (made it through both legs, but my arms its not feeling very good and I still have chest and other areas left. I also didn't like loading and unloading the razors in the double edge safety razors. This single edge (SE) injector system is AMAZING, I feel very safe loading them and it's incredibly easy. Since I now have Supply razors, I tried this Parker razor with the Supply Black Label razor blades, and it wasn't any better. Especially now after using Supply (I can easily recommend either the SE or the Pro) this Parker razor feels cheap, light and looks terrible. Updated 26-Mar-2022: I've now tried three brands of SE (Single Edge safety blades) in my Supply Pro razor. The supply black label, this Parker injector (these blades can be purchased without this terrible razor), and Schick. Parker is my second favorite and least expensive (on a per blade comparison, coming in at only 42 cents per blade when purchased in a 4-pack on Amazon). Schick is my favorite and also lasts me the longest, which ties it for least expensive for how much I "project" to spend on blades per month or per year, as the Parker, even though it costs 72 cents per blade. My roommate borrowed my Supply SE to shave his face (he's currently using a mach 3 glide or some expensive cartridge style razor). He absolutely loves the Supply razor and is going to get one, can't believe how smooth his face felt, I was impressed with how his face looked and felt as well. I do not recommend this Parker razor at all. But I do highly recommend the Supply razors, unfortunately they cannot be purchased on Amazon (but they do come with a 100 day no questions asked return policy and a lifetime warranty). Do yourself a favor and switch to the Supply razor, you will be pleasantly surprised and really enjoy the experience of shaving (something that I had never described as 'enjoying' before).

Product works well enough. BUT I had to fix the injector and the blade clamp on the handle BEFORE I could use it. This is not supposed to be a Lego kit for razors.

Excellent, même pour raser après plusieurs jours.

Quiero comentarles, me pusieron en duda, pero encontré cual es la solución definitiva solo cambiar de marca de hoja por unas shick inyector, hojas, yo tengo también un rastrillo doble filo merkur lo uso con hojas doble filo parker y si esas si son muy buenas, del nivel de las hojas merkur, aquí la falla fue en la fabricación de las hojas inyector Parker si producen mucha irritación y algunos pequeños cortes, yo lo que hago uso un jabón de tarro con brocha Osama de alumbre y una crema de afeitar suave adicional para hacer una espuma espesa. y una delicia de rasurando con mi maquina Parker inyector u al final una pequeña pasada con mi maquina doble filo y, Buala perfecto rasurando.

Ótimo

It was great to use at first then I loaded in a new blade and had issues and I realised that the blades were coming out backwards from the cartridge so the razor edge pointed away from the face. Annoyingly I had to carefully flip them around now but it works well otherwise.

シンプルでとても気に入っています。 刃の深さを変えられるのでいろいろな状況に対応出来ます。 肌荒れの時は浅く、気合いの入ったイベント前は深く自分に合わせて使えます。 また、エコロジーだと思います。本体は状況により一生使えると思います。刃だけを交換すれば良いのですから❗無駄なプラスチックが少なく済むと思います。
