Description

Parker is a manufacturer from India that has been producing fine hardware since 1973, you can bet your bottom rupee you are in good hands if you pick one of their products. This is where performance, quality and value for money comes together in razor universe. Their razors vary from fairly conservative to outright Bollywood splendour, and boy do they ever have the moves!  Their shaving action ranges from mild to medium aggressive, so basically anyone can use them.

The 97R is a little three piece powerhouse with a smooth white chrome finish, the short handle is knurled for the most part apart from two bands top and bottom. The shorty will be a favorite with many folks as it has the classical old school looks, in yonder years longer handles were unheard off and many razors looked much like this fella. The shave will be medium and it will be a good daily driver for most folk, go across the grain for a bit of a closer shave, and against it for an even smoother result.   

In spite of its size, this razor still weighs a 96 grams, and has an overall height of 86mm.

    Superior quality

    Jaco was incredibly helpful in assisting me making the correct purchase. I am new to this type of shaving and can honestly say it’s the best quality shave , no nicks , no razor burn and a super close shave. I will never pick up a conversation razor again. This is my go to store from now on. Go check out their amazing shave soaps and balms, there is simply nothing that comes close to what these guys are offering.

    Great for gents with sensitive skin.

    I bought this razor to remedy the razor bump I get when I shave. To my delight this razor has a brilliant balance between offering a modestly efficient shave whilst also keeping the razor bump at bay.

    Amazing little powerhouse!

    An absolutely amazing little guy that does such a good job at a close, clean shave. I love the weight of this razor, and the fact that most of it is concentrated at the head. This really means you don’t have to apply any pressure as the weigh is perfect to allow it to glide through my whiskers. Great product from an amazing company!

    Little razor with big results

    So I bought this razor after readings comments on internet forums. Was looking for a razor that packs more punch the an Edwin Jagger de89 or Merkur 34c. The comments were spot on. Smooth shaver almost no blade feel and very efficient. If you looking for a step up from a de89 or 34c this is the one. Well made,nice heft and solid shaver.
