The Parker Safety Razor adjustable straight edge barber razor has different blade exposures so that you can customize your shave. Depending upon your skin type and straight razor shaving skills, you can swap between low, medium, and high-blade exposures. This design configuration provides the performance of three different razors into one with the promise to offer a barbershop-quality shaving experience. 1. Low Blade Exposure: Useful for light beard growth or bulk shave jobs, hot towel shaves, etc. where a lower, more stable blade exposure is needed 2. Medium Blade Exposure: Most all-around usage with moderate blade exposure for many different shaving tasks 3. High Blade Exposure: Useful for more detailed work and shapeups where more visible blade exposure is required Effortless Blade AssemblyOur barber razor features blade inserts with three different configurations: low, medium, and high to provide a customized shaving experience depending on skill level, beard growth or shave task.
