This is a question for people who have tried Rockwell 6S and, like me, found it at setting/plate 3 (R3) to be one of the best, smoothest and most efficient razors:
Have you tried any other razor that is as good or better?
Preferably not made from Zamak.
I have tried about 15 razors until finding the Rockwell 6S in 2017 and I am very happy with it but in the mean time I see new ones appeared, especially some interesting ones made from stainless steel and other good materials, some made with CNC, and they look very interesting (and very expensive...).
From the ones I tried Rockwell is the most expensive, followed by Merkur Progress and except the stainless steel Rockwell and the brass Fatip they where all made from Zamak.
I also tried a shavette.
My favorites after some distance to Rockwell are the Merkur Progress at the lowest setting which is close to Rockwell at R4 and the Merkur open comb which is close to Rockwell at R2.
Thanks!
