Beautiful looking Razor but I will never understand the half DE blade thing.  WHY?  Just use a DE.
If they made that to fit an AC blade or a GEM blade then it would have been so much more appealing.

I kind of agree. The up side is ease of blade accusation.  I still prefer vintage though.  That being said there is a certain open comb unmentionable I want as a Shade razor.

Yes, partially.
This one looks to me more a marketing option.
BUT, I love my SHaDE. Very slim and precise.
More than many many DE. With the ease of the same blade.
Good or not, DE blades are the global standard ...

Bingo! Give that man a cigar.

I saw that but didn't see what blade it took. I'd probably be interested if it took an Injector blade. AC are just a bit to wide for my liking. Gem would also be cool. I wonder what the price will be.

Ah, sorry I didn't notice the link in the OP. Thanks. Not a bad price.

I’m not sure I get the reasoning of Parker’s rationale for having this razor ……

 “ the perfect razor for new and experienced wet shavers looking for the blade angle of a cartridge razor with the benefits of a safety razor.

Really?
