1st shave with Sainsburys blade and first use of Parker 96R razor.


I like the feel of this razor, the weight seems good and it is about right for me in terms of aggressiveness. The smoothness of the TTO mechanism causes concern, it is not as good as the Wilkinson TTO for example. I have sprayed Silicone spray lubricant down the handle and this appears to have improved matters considerably
