Are Parker DE Razors a good quality safety razor, if not then what are some good brands to buy from?
In my Eyes Parker Razors are OK, good Price for a more or less good Razor but if you prefer a higher quality older Gillette Type Razors or actual Muhle, Merkur, Giesen & Forsthoff, Ikon and some other Razors are those you should have a look on.
Had a Parker at the Beginning Time, wasnt bad but not the quality in Design & Finish im prefering.
Another one is Henckles when you can find them!Quote:

Good luck in your purchase.
+1 on all of the above but my go to razor is the Weber stainless steel great quality and reasonably priced. So good I bought a couple.
I consider the Parkers to be ok razors, kind of middle of the road. Great razor for the price. Great entry level DE. It is not over aggressive. There are worse razors and there are better razors. I'd take an old Gillette, Muhle, or Merkur over a Parker, but that is just my preference.
