Just beat my Parker Variant and English Aristocrat Jr!
Both were equally efficient, but the Rockwell was MUCH smoother!

And new favorite blade...

Lefonque
Even more clueless than you
Thumbs up.

Which plate?
The 6c/6s are good value for what you get... Bit bulky, but undeniably effective

Plate 3...first plate I tried and it was wonderful! I have a couple of Canadian razors
on order. But, honestly, if I only had this one razor and blade, I would be happy. I actually donāt find it too big. As a matter of fact, I will be selling my smaller Gillette razors in the future, because I like the size of the Rockwell. I canāt believe my favorite razor and blade (so far!) are made in the U.S.A.Of course, it probably helps that Iām getting my technique and shave ritual down! Shower...pre shave...hot towel...cold rinse...quality soap...slooow shave (2 pass + touch up), warm rinse...dry...cool rinse...alum...cool rinse...dry...witch hazel...get dressed...post shave balm...lol
Actually, if I wouldāve been as careful when shaving with my Fusion, I probably would have had much better shaves!

Thanks, gdawg55!
I can't believe it's been less than a month since I started my search for the perfect shave and I'm already happy!
I thought this was going to take months! This forum (and YouTube shave videos!) are the way to get the information you need to achieve shaving nirvana!
P.S. I have a Lupo and a Karve on the way. But, I would be very surprised if they can beat what I experienced today!

Congratulations! The Rockwell is indeed a wonderful shaver. Next - step up to a 6S to have your favorite razor in "built like a tank" version!
Ā
For me my best razor,smooth and efficient.
Ā
One of the favourite razors in my den, versatile, super smooth, effective and it won't break the bank
Ā
I agree. The 6c and 6s give identical shaves BUT the 6s is a razor you won't ever have to replace.
Ā
I love my 6S. Enjoy!

You will like the Lupo.....great razor. I didn't have much luck with Karve, but YMMV. This is a fun hobby so enjoy.

The Rockwell 6S was my first razor and when I used it with a Personna Red I got noticeably smoother shaves than I had experienced previously. It's a great combo.
Ā
My Rockwell 6s has brought me nothing but joy. I use the R4 for my first pass then switch to the R3 for everything else. It's the only razor I feel I need.
Ā
No complaints with my Rockwell 6S. Great razor. Bought a 6C to use as a travel razor. It has cockeyed, miscut threads. Not tragic but not what I would expect from a high end company like Rockwell. Contacted their CS. First they wanted pictures; sent them. Next they wanted a video (video???) of me screwing and unscrewing the head on the handle...huh???
Said forget it. No offer of return for inspection. No offer of replacement or refund. Just a request for a video. Figured for what? $30.00? Iāll keep it until I find someone who wants to buy it.
Video????

The 6c is I believe made overseas while the 6s is made in North America. So quality control is probably better on the 6s in addition to the much better quality of metal.
Ā
āGet what you pay forā rings true here for sure.
Ā
The 6s is what the cool kids use !
Ā
Congratulations. It's great when you find what works, enjoy your shaves!
