    Do you still have your 4 piece English Tech? That a nice one! :)

    You asked me if mine was a service set ... I think it was.

    An old thread, back from the dead (ooooOOOOooo... insert spooky music here)!

    This was a very old thread, but I thought I'd ressurect it in case current-gen folks search for great super short stubby razors (like I just did).
    One solution wasn't included, perhaps because it doesn't HAVE to be stubby... or perhaps because it may not have been available in 2018.
    Here it is:

    It's the Parker A1R Travel razor. 2-piece handle; only use 1 piece if you want a stubby. It uses a standard thread, so you can use other heads on it if you want. I was using a light, stubby Gillette Travel Tech in my camper, but that handle was just TOO light and TOO stubby. So I tried this one. Wasn't happy with the head. So I screwed on the head from the Gillette Travel Tech and found my perfect combination!
    The Parker-Gillette FrankenRazor is now my go-to travel and camper razor.
