Parker 42M Heavyweight All-Metal Triple Blade Razor – Shaving Razor with Brass Frame + Deluxe Textured Graphite Gray Handle - One Gillette Mach 3 Razor Blade Included

High quality. Looks good. The knurled handle makes it easy to control, even with wet hands. Definitely a worthwhile purchase.

Awesome, it's heavy in your hand and easy to control

Positive- Feels good in the hand - has some weight to it and the handle is dimpled to reduce slipping- Attractive designNegative- The head of the razor frequently rotates loose from the handle of the razor - requiring it to be tightened before shaving can continue. This happens 3 to 4 times on every shave- The clips that are supposed to fit into the razor blade are not strong enough to extract the blade from the plastic safety container that holds the Mach 3 razor bladesI owned another model of this company's razor previously. After several years, the clips wore out so I feel I got decent use out of that model. This model is not the same quality.I would not recommend buying it - the price does not equal the performance.

Torn on this. On one had it has a very nice, stable industrial feel, with good heft that results in a nice shave. Unfortunately, as others have stated, the small silver bridge piece between the black handle and the blade connector tends to loosen and need retightening every 5-8 shaves. I suspect that bridge piece is part of the assembly they must buy from Gillette ( so as not to violate their patents) and the handle manufacturer has limited control here. I’m going to try a couple of dabs of licorice here, and if that fails, move onto CA glue. But couldn’t this have been done the “factory”?

This is a well made product. It feels as good as it looks. It's well balanced and has a nice hefty too it. It's something that you use almost every day, so splurge a little.

I loved the first one I bought but after dropping it one too many times, I had to replace it. I got about 4 years of use out of it so didn’t mind. My new one always comes unscrewed halfway down. That annoys me but it does look nice in my shower and has a good weight to it.

High quality

Update to my one star review….I was contacted by both the seller (Super Safety Razor) and Parker Safety Razor. The seller sent me an improved blade holder that screws on the the handle very easily. The plastic is black compared to the grey that broke. I am happy to have the razor back. First class service.It worked great for two months then the plastic blade holder assembly fell off when I pushed the button to eject the blade. Had to put the blade in a vice to separate it from holder. It is a shame that a company promotes the quality of their all metal product and then renders it unusable by putting a cheap defective component that fails just after it is out of warranty.
