Rockwell 6S Adjustable Stainless Steel Safety Razor

Product Review (submitted on 9 April 2020):

This is a technically excellent razor, or rather a razor system. It comes attractively packaged with full instructions and I found that it was no hassle changing the plates between passes in the middle of shaving. Although I have fairly sensitve skin the quite aggressive R4 plate seemed best suited and I wonder if those with really tough beards might require an additional (non-existent) R7/R8 plate. There might be a case for manufacturing such an 'add on' stainless plate to cater for them. I did not care for the Rockwell razor blades supplied and prefer to use Astras, Voshkods and Bic Chromes in this razor.

Overall, I was very happy even though the price of the 6S is quite steep (but better value than an Edwin Jagger 3One6). If it cost about £20 less it would be absolutely unbeatable. I would, without hesitation, recommend it to both experienced shavers and to those novices wanting a decent safety razor to keep for life.

The razor arrived very promptly after the order and given the continuing slide of the pound against the US dollar I would consider buying one before the price shoots up.
