Find it a very nice razor to use, love it, the only reason I am not using it at the minute is I am working through the iKon 7 piece set at the minute, but the Parker will be back in my travel bag very soon.

I love mine, although the adjustable knob has become a little loose of late. Anyone know how to tighten it please? TIA

I'm fancying one of these, with the black handle. Currently using a EJ 89 with the black handle, and although I love it's looks, it could do with a bit more bite.

The parker variant being an adjustable will certainly give you more bite

Well mine arrived today. Won't be having a shave 'til tomorrow night so can't comment on that yet, but I'm impressed with the weight of the thing.
I actually ordered the graphite one (by mistake) instead of the black handled version, but I really like the look of it so won't be swapping.

I believe the choices are graphite and silver, currently.
either way the contrasting handle is lovely! Same as I've got!

I have both versions, which shows how much I like it and for the money it's one of the best buys, it doesn't compare though to other admittedly more expensive offerings like the Paradigm 17-4.

Had the first shave with mine tonight, happy with it. Much closer shave than my EJ89 with the variant set to 3.
Even the Mrs noticed how smooth I was.
I wonder what setting 5 is like......

Swapped the Astra blade for a Polsilver in mine this morning and it was one of the worst shaves I've ever had, nicks, irritation so bad I had to stop.
BUT......
All my own fault. Guess who forgot about lining the marks up! In my rush I'd put the cap on 180° wrong, the result being a shave that looked more like a suicide attempt.
