Anyone know any info about this razor? I searched the site and didn't find anything. I like the look of it.
In the product reviews section - there are three Parkers, just not this particular model.
For that matter - what about a Feather? They are supposedly well made. I am thinking about getting one myself.
I agree with everything trainman said, but I will ad that since I wrote the initial review, having used more vintage Gillettes I do think the Parkers are noticeably inferior in terms of build quality and durability. If you especially like the look, I'd try to seek out a ~1970 "Black Beauty" Gillette Adjustable long handle. They're not the most common razor out there, but they're usually not expensive.
I am a noob as well with a first purchase and I just bought one. Should be here in a few days. Reviews of the 90R seemed like it would be good for someone new like me and it seems from your responses I made a good choice.
I have to admit, I partially purchased it just because no one seems to talk about it on these boards.
