Nice shave Heiko. Glad you got back safely from your trip. I like the description of the open comb smoothness of the Parker. I always find the ends of the open comb on the open combs I have to be sharp. have a great weekend. 👍🎅
The Variant closed comb I have not tried but if it is anything like the Merkur Progress it is a pleasant razor but I can speak for the Variant Open Comb. The Variant OC is a very smooth razor. It was a very pleasant surprise. I love it.
Very good review. Sounds like much less blade feel than the Yaqi Ultima. I’m trying to sell mine as well. Assume you still prefer the Leaf Twig? I had one and sold it on BST last year. Regretting it.
Yes I do! I still use it very often. The Leaf razor doesn't give me the pride of ownership like a Rex or the Homelike Taiga would but it is a really great mild early morning razor.
How interesting, and shows that Parker is confident in their products.
You got a perfect shave thanks to the razor and the blade.
11:36 Thank you for sending that razor over!
Excellent shave Heiko, I love the Parker Variant:)
Me too!

Thank you! You too!
Welcome back, I hope you had a great time Heiko !
I did, thanks
Already a big fan of the progress / Variant..
Guess the variant oc is a smart move by parker.. after all we haven't got an open progress
Great review Heiko! Could you give us your top 5 razors in your rotation for 2023 sometime this month? It would be interesting to know. Thanks
Will do!
If I want a thorough and pleasant shave, should I choose the Parker Variant with an open or closed comb?

Good soap. I have some.
Nice razor too. Open comb is milder than the closed comb.
Thanks for the shout!
Nice Shave.
Thank you.
@@Heiko-shaves I appreciate what you do.
