Merkur Progress vs Parker Variant for everyday?

[Invicta]

Question. Does any of these razors cover the blade fully?

The blade tabs stick out as for most DE razors; makes handling the blade safer.

I have the variant and the edge of the blade sticks out on both sides. It’s not a big deal to me but other shavers reported they get cut around the ears from the edge.

I have the game changer .84 and the head completely covers the blade.

I know, I was wondering how much. I wonder if someone could post a picture of a blade in both razors.

If the blades are exposed less than in Gillette Slim, then I would be very interested in one of them.

AFAIK no. The only one I encountered was Giesen & Forsthoff Timor. But that actually proves to be a big problem if you get a piece that doesn't align the blade totally properly as you can't jig the blade because it's fully covered.

Not an issue for me.

This is the Progress razor, isn't it? Just to make it certain.

Yes.

 

[albsat]

Yes.

It is perfect, seems the same distance as in a Fatip.

I wonder how exposed are the tabs in the Variant?
