Parker 100 Count, Parker Safety Razor Double Edge Safety Razor Blades, Premium Platinum Stainless Steel Razor Blades with PTFE, Tungsten and Chromium Coated Edges for Smooth, and Comfortable Shaves

Exceptional Quality and Performance I recently purchased the Parker Platinum Double Edge (DE) Razor Blades, and I must say, they have exceeded my expectations in many ways. As an avid wet shaver with a few years of experience under my belt, I've tried blades from various brands, but Parker has truly stood out for its price to performance ratio. Sharpness and Smoothness One of the most critical aspects of a razor blade is its sharpness, and the Parker Platinum blades do not disappoint. To me, they feel as sharp as a Gillette 7 O'Clock, but definitely less sharp than a Feather. From the very first shave, I noticed how effortlessly the blade glided across my skin, cutting through stubble with minimal resistance. The sharpness of these blades ensures a close shave, reducing the need for multiple passes and thereby minimizing skin irritation. Usually, they are smooth from the first use itself. However, my best shaves with them are usually the 2nd and 3rd. I have sensitive skin and am prone to razor burn and nicks, but with these blades, I've experienced significantly less irritation. The platinum coating seems to play a crucial role in delivering a smooth and comfortable shave. The blades feel thinner than other sharp blades and a little flimsy during handling. However, once clamped properly in a quality metal razor, they don't have any chatter. Durability I find they perform perfectly for about 4 shaves (3 pass shaves). After that, I notice a drop in sharpness. Packaging and Value The blades come in a plastic case, which makes it easy to dispose of used blades behind the tuck. However, I would rather Parker used cardboard tucks, as one of the reasons I wet shave is to reduce my plastic footprint. Each blade is individually wrapped, which is excellent for maintaining hygiene and ensuring the blades do not get damaged. Considering the quality and performance of these blades, they offer exceptional value for money. They are competitively priced and available in bulk packs, which is great for regular shavers. #### Final Thoughts ##### Overall, the Parker Platinum DE Razor Blades are a fantastic choice for anyone looking for a reliable, sharp, and smooth shaving experience. They cater to both beginners and experienced wet shavers, providing a balance of sharpness and comfort that is hard to beat at this price. I highly recommend giving these blades a try if you’re looking to elevate your shaving routine. --- Note: I have been using these blades for several weeks, and my review is based on consistent performance over this period. Individual experiences may vary based on shaving technique, skin type, and razor used.

Nice packaging. The printing on the steel blade itself is a bit smudgy, but that has no bearing on the quality of the blade. I bought the single edge razor model SRX from Parker and used the included half blade with it. The quality was superb. The shave was smooth, close and even. Today I used the twin edge with the Bombay Shaving Company twin edge razor with the normal head (as opposed to Aggressive). This was from the current pack of 100 blades @ Rs. 999. Feel was almost the same. They were two different types of razors. So you can't really compare exactly. How does it compare with Feather? Costwise, you pay half as much for Parker as you do for Feather. In terms of the shave itself, I don't find anything different. In fact, I liked the feel of the Parker better. In terms of the weigh of the blade itself, it is a bit lighter than Feather meaning there is less metal in this blade than Feather. I could be wrong here because I haven't weight them on an electronic weighing scale. I don't use any twin edge blade till the end of its life because it is not worth it. It is too early to say how long each Parker blade lasts since I have only had one shave so far. If it lasts for four, I would say it is as good as Feather in terms of value for money. However, if I use the single edge Parker SRX, I have no reason to stretch each blade that long. I might as well use each half blade once. That only time will tell. Who is this blade for? You care about your face and don't mind spending a bit more than the Indian brands available from local shops. Don't get me wrong! Those brands are not bad. But the reason for the lower price is not just the sharpness, but the thickness of the blade. Thinner blades (cheaper) have a tendency to lose sharpness during one shave just because they are thin. The roughness of the edge of the blade can only be felt when you shave. You cannot see the difference with the naked eye. There are not many quality options available from retail stores. Quality blades are either exported from India, or imported from overseas. So a common Indian consumer has to buy the three blade and five blade razor blades like the Gillette Mach 3 or Mach 5. You want a quality shave, you have a high quality twin edge or single edge shavette razor and you want an appropriate blade at a reasonable cost, then Parker blade is for you. Just bear in mind you are buying 100 shaves with this pack assuming you will throw the blade after every use. That's still quite a long way. You might be wondering if it is worth it. I think it is. I am saying it once again after writing a review on the SRX, don't compromise on the shaving brush and the shaving cream. Get a good quality brush and a good quality shaving cream. That plays a major role in the quality of the shave.

Good blades, but as other reviewers have mentioned, the seller (or it could be amz itself), which is not so good. One blade was missing out of five. They just put one empty blade wrapper instead of blade+wrapper. Very surprising to see this kind of stuff happening. I checked and counted 3 times to confirm that I was not making a counting mistake. So basically you are getting 4 blades for the price of 5. And of course, there are possible hygiene issues because these are disposable products.

Excellent cut and shave using parker blades. Till now I was only using Gillette platinum razor blades but these are far superior. Absolutely fab including packaging of 5 blades in a safety case for easy carry.

One of the best double edge blades I have used. One blade can be used two times if your beard is not thick. I have used Dorco (Korea) blades in the past after reading reviews, but they were TERRIBLE - hard and causing cuts, also it was not at all smooth.

Don't buy Waste of money It's price is more than gillette platinum and quality is ever worst than any other blades इस से ज्यादा अच्छे un branded blades quality है एकदम बकवास पुरे 45 साल मे पहिली बार ऐसे ghtiya Blade देखे इस ब्लेड से जख्म होते है shaving करते वक्त Half shave me hi iske blade ka power jata hai Mere paise waste gaye

At this point "SuperMax Diamond Edge(SMDE)" blades are 5/5. I am someone who changes blades on every shave, since my dermatologist has advised me to for my sensitive skin, which is prone to acne. A sharper new blade prevents nano-abrasions caused by used blades. This is also why I haven't used Japanese blades, because they would cost >₹200 per shave, and they l retain sharpness for multiple shaves, probably more than a dozen times. They'd be wasted for a single shave user like me. Anyhow enough of that. The Parker's are almost as sharp as SMDE. The difference is 8.8/10 against 9/10 for SMDE. I can feel it, barely if I want to notice it. If my mind is elsewhere while shaving, then not really. These are also minutely thinner than SMDE's. Again a difference of "feel" which has no effect on the outcome. The only reason I would take away stars for this blade is the plastic packaging. It is absolutely entirely unnecessary, specially when plastic waste is a huge problem. It is also extremely inconvenient, when you need to take a blade out of the plastic container every single time you shave. And it is doubly inconvenient if you have wet hands while doing so(happens a lot). Probably the Turks(these are made in Turkey) should take a lesson from India on how to pack blades. We use paper for everything, and packing blades are not an exception either. And hey, it works. In the end, these blades would be my choice only if SMDE's were not available, which was the reason I bought these. Otherwise, for single shave use SMDE's are the best blades out there(in my humble opinion of course).

Would definitely recommend...I still use it after all these many years...going strong...

元々はシンテシ・ベルベットというイタリアンホルダーを購入の際についてきたのが、出会いでした。これまで使っていたヘンソン替刃に不満はなかったので、使う事はないかな、くらいに思っていました。 それでもホルダーについての評価が固まると、この替刃はどんな傾向だろうと興味が湧きました。 結果、かなり良い！ 以下、ヘンソン替刃との比較です。 ・滑らかさ ヘンソン>パーカー ・手答え パーカー>ヘンソン ・深剃り パーカー>ヘンソン ・安全性 ヘンソン>パーカー ・耐久性 ヘンソン>パーカー あら？ヘンソンの勝ち？ 数だけ見ればそう見えます。でも待ってください。もう一枚評価軸に加えます。日本の宝フェザーです。 フェザーはアグレッシブ過ぎ、もはや危険物の領域(でも好きです)。ヘンソンは安全で扱い易く、かといってナマクラではない(でもつまらない)。 極めて攻撃的なフェザー、そして安全だけど退屈なヘンソン、その真ん中、いいとこ取りがパーカーです。つまりちょうど良い。フェザーほどには緊張を強いない、かといって退屈なほど安全ではない(油断するとやられるかも)。 すなわち、滑らか過ぎて手答えがないといった物足りなさはなく、かといって深剃りのために安全性を犠牲にしない。肌当たりを確認し剃刀との対話を楽しみながら、剃っている実感がある、それがパーカー替刃です。 インドのムンバイで創業。インド人の民族・文化(床屋文化、剃刀によるシェービング、髭が濃く硬い)により鍛えられた刃です。ヨーロッパブランドの洗練とはちょっと異なる実用性の強みがあります。 長い付き合いになりそうです。 イタリアの感性が生んだホルダーにインドの生活に根差した刃を合わせる。この奇跡の巡り合わせを掌に迎え、道具との対話から始まる朝がある。こんな贅沢はありません。 Parker doppio taglio e Syntesi Velvet, che spettacolo!
