Rockwell 6S Review

[jmudrick]

Can you see the picture now?
I live in Sweden so I bought it from a Swedish vendor. Most likely they will accept the return from me. Still hesitant to get another 6c due to this issue. Which of the razors have best glide? I don’t want the chrome on my razor to fall apart after just a couple of uses.

My 6C is perfect, and one from the first run. Chrome seems good quality to me and ironically I read more complaints about tea staining on the 6S. Considering the price I consider the 6C a near miracle.

Don't you find the razor to be too heavy especially SS one, and head to be too bulky what makes it uncomfortable to shave under the nose ?

Good question...

The head thickness is kind of irrelevant in my experience because it's only the base plate that is thicker, not the top cap.

I can get it right under my nose without any issues.

The weight of razors is a personal preference. Currently I'm using a Weber bulldog so the razor weighs in at 110g but I also have a maggard hexagonal SS handle on the way so the razor will weigh about 100g, which I find to be the sweet spot for me.

Yes, the 6C and 2C seem like great values. I'm not worried about "tea staining" with the 6S, as I feel any razor, even a steel one, should be thoroughly dried after each use. But I won't travel with it, as I tend to leave things behind.
