I would not consider the R1 a truly Rockwell safety razor.
The 2c, 6c, 6s and model T are designed by Rockwell. The R1 is a Chinese razor that some sellers rebrand, including Rockwell.
In fact the "Rockwell" R1, Is also called Vikings Blade Chieftain, Baili Barber safety razor, and who knows if there are others out there.
I would go with a Gillette vintage, instead of a Rockwell R1.
