Great work! Yes. A proper buffing wheel would be Great and cut some time for sure!

I have to admit, your Rockwell does look nice. Patience and time spent does pay off.

@larzone is that the newer metal injection molding version or the initial investment casting type? Beautiful razor!

Very nice job! I'm not skilled in the polishing arts, so I purchased a 6C in white chrome because I wanted the smoother, slicker finish. Polishing a 6S, you've got the benefit of stainless. Congrats!

I do belive its the new version. Only had it a couple of weeks.

You definitely have a lot more patience than I would, but great job! Got the 6C gunmetal version myself and love the look, though while it’s super smooth (I’m on the 4 plate) I’m still learning how to get that BBS shave (often leaves stubble behind but getting there).

Thank you! Well BBS will Come in time. Just work that perfectly angle!

Paired it with a barber pole handle today. Beautiful!

Very nice work! Warning polishing razors is addictive. It actually does make a razor shave slightly smoother. I’m up to about 6 or so.

I agree to that! I Will polish all plats and handle but in time. No hurry for me doping that but they do shave smoother.

Ended up polishing handle as well.

Didn't have a chance to clean up good, but my polished Rockwell, complete with some soap deposits....true dirty picture!

Ah...the wonders of Time, and a good Dremel! Great pics!

It's the holidays...and here's my final "version" of the newly polished 6S. Realizing, of course, that you can spend endless hours polishing and re-polishing; the Dremel can be hopelessly addictive. But at least now, the Rockwell 6S looks kind of nice. Thanks to larzone for the tips!

Fantastic. If it was sold like that I’d have bought it over the 6c.
