6S Black Stainless Steel Safety Razor. Adjustable Single Blade Razor With 6 Shave Settings and 5 Recyclable Blades. Custom Shaves For Men and Women. Reduces Razor Burn and Irritation.

I've been using a Mühle razor for the past few years. I thought it was pretty decent, but bought the 6S after reading some reviews on various sites. I am thoroughly impressed with it, after my first use. I tried the lowest level shave initially, and moved up to where it felt most comfortable, which was easy and quick. It was the closest and most comfortable shave I've ever had, no nicks at all! There were some problem areas where I needed to apply more pressure, and they came out perfectly. I put off upgrading for a long time, and I'm glad I finally did. The price is maybe a bit much, but honestly the shave was decently quick, which makes the time I'll save shaving absolutely worth it.

Great shave, smooth, little if any learning curve, no nicks, no cuts, no razor burns, even if you’re new to safety razors. If you shave every day, keep it on setting 3 with a Nacet blade. If you shave less often, set it up for 4 or 5. Simple to use. Stainless steel is nice and substantial, easy to grip. Never slips. Started with a mild Twig razor but graduated to this serious, top of the line heavyweight. Worth the money.

Best razor I’ve owned. It feels solid and well-made in your hand, and the different plates make it easy to find the perfect shave without irritation. Every shave is smooth, comfortable, and close, with way less razor burn. It just works, feels premium, and honestly seems like a razor I’ll be using for the rest of my life. Much better than spending $20 for a replacement razor from other companies.

I purchased a Rockwell 6s razor as an upgrade from my Merur 34C daily shaver after reading several positive recommendations. While I found nothing wrong with my Merkur, the Rockwell is definitely a step up. The adjustable heads are key. I found, for me, the number 4 works very well on my beard and skin type. Once I found "my" setting , I tried various blades from different manufactures and found that all seem to give very good results. Clearly the better quality blades last longer and do a better job, but even inexpensive blades did a commendable job. This included cheap "store brand" blades purchased at a local grocery store. The razor I purchased is very well constructed. I would say it's built like a tank. The 6s is a SOLID, well built razor, and heavy. I was quite surprised by the difference in weights between the Merkur and the Rockwell. At first use, to me, the Rockwell seemed like someone got the bright idea of bolting a double edge razor blade on to an old Ford truck axle. The Rockwell is solid and heavy. The Merkur, hollow, and much lighter. At first, I had doubts that the Rockwell's quality and alleged capability justified the extra cost. I was also used to the lightness of the Merkur and was concerned that the heavy Rockwell would be clumsy, unwieldy and difficult to maneuver, perhaps resulting in nicks and cuts. This proved not to be the case, however, as once I had the Rockwell is dialed in, and with a heavy lather of Col. Conk's shave soap, I have consistently gotten BBS shaves. I have to agree with other reviewers that the Rockwell is a step up from the Merkur, and is definitely worth the money. The Merkur, I still like and will keep, but now goes into my travel kit. The Rockwell has been promoted to daily shaver.

Originally bought a double edged safety razor to avoid the high cost and waste of a cartridge razor. Buying a safety razor turned into a quest for the ultimate smooth shave. Bought the Rockwell 6S because the shaving edge is adjustable using different plates. Also, like the weight of the razor. Able to use the weight of the razor when shaving most of the time to avoid pressing down. Can get a very smooth shave. Details are below: Shaving Before Safety Razor 1. Use an electric razor to shorten whiskers and minimize the wear on the expensive shave cartridges 2. Dry shave with the cartridge razor to further shorten the whiskers Shaving with the Safety Razor 1. Wet lather shave with the safety razor 2. Use electric razor on dimple Main Results 1. Very smooth shave with Rockwell 2. Occasional nicks, but less bleeding if nicked and more easily stopped than nicks from cartridge razor 3. Takes longer (About 10 minutes vs 3 minutes) Lessons 1. Using a safety razor started me on the quest for the ultimate smooth shave that is virtually impossible to achieve. (There are always a few spots with slightly longer whiskers after shaving.) 2. Other than shortening the dimple whiskers, the electric shaver does no shaving after using the safety razor 3. The safety razor gives a much smoother shave than the cartridge razor 4. Previously had 5 o'clock shadow and often shaved if going out in the evening. No longer necessary 5. Big learning curve. Many more variables including Razor and its settings, blade, cream, shaving brush to learn to optimize

Top quality razor...but WILDLY overpriced. I like the design having different inserts that each align the blade at a slightly different angle. Its a nice clean shave every time and its basically a once-in-a-lifetime purchase because it really has no moving parts to ever wear out. About the only way you could ever break it is if you somehow stripped the screw threads that attach the head to the razor handle, but you would really have to be determined to do that. It is a little different using a safety razor instead of disposables because the blade changing process involves unscrewing the head to take it apart. One thing that I had to buy separately was a disposal container for old blades, but those are not very expensive.

I just received my new Rockwell 6S and upon closer inspection I noticed a casting flaw on the #2/4 adjustment plate. As with any cast part this can occasionally happen. I can see why quality control missed it and most people would ( See photo.). I just tend to be meticulous. I contacted Amazon. They wanted me to return the razor, wait for their refund, and have me reorder. I just thought this would take too much time. Immediately, I emailed Rockwell Razor explaining the flawed part. I had read several reviews that their customer support was lacking and I was a bit concerned. However, I received an email, back, the following day asking if I could provide a photo. I did. A few hours later, I received another email with order confirmation for the replacement part. I received it. I just want to say I had no problems with Rockwell and they made it right. They stand behind their products. My special thanks to Brar, who was my Customer Service Advocate. He was understanding, quick and efficient. Now I ordered the Rockwell 6S to replace my forgotten Merkur Futur. It provided years of great shaves. However, towards the end I noticed the the blade gap became uneven. That’s because, it’s an inherent issue with twist-style adjustable razors. Yes I fixed it by squaring the spring ends and using flat washers. The Rockwell design uses preset bottom plates to change the blade geometry. So, it does not suffer from this-twist style design flaw and will not wear out or change with use or age. Overall I am extremely very happy with it and the Rockwell Company. It’s heavy. Which is good. Metal razors tend to hold onto heat. So, preheating and rinsing with hot water provides for a nice, comfortable hot shave. I paired it with Feather Platinum Blades. These are the best blades I’ve used. A warning. The best for me probably won’t be the best for you. So, as with any DE safety razor, try different blades to find yours. Rockwell Razor is 5⭐️

I know there are differing sides on shaving. Cartridge, safety, straight edge and electric. In my teen years I started with an adjustable safety razor. I always had nicks each week for many years. Just couldn’t get the knack or the razors weren’t great back in the 70’s. So I went electric for many years. Got tired of not getting a close shave and switched to cartridges. Then the cost became a burden and back I went to electric, foil and rotary. But they just don’t shave closely and I would end up doing touch ups with a cartridge blade. How dumb is that. So finally after extensive research I decided on this Rockwell safety razor. Time to shave is not bad at all. I actually am enjoying the ritual. My shave is finally close, nothing left to feel on my face. Using a good shaving cream has left me with zero nicks, and the scent is great and lasts all day. All told with the razor, extra blades, brush, cream and balm it was under 150. Well worth it. My skin is healthier and my face is much smoother than ever before. This is an excellent razor, solid build, feels good in the hand, six adjustment plate settings for mild to aggressive shaving and simply a precision shaver that will last decades. Well worth the cost and I wish I had done this sooner. This is what proper shaving really is and thus is an excellent shaver.
