ROCKWELL RAZORSR1 Safety Razor in Gunmetal, Butterfly Open Mechanism with 5 Double Edge Blades

I own the Rockwell 6s,6c, Merkur Futr, Merkur 34c &34g, Merkur Progress(short handle), Edwin Jagger de89&87, Muhle R89 Twist, Dovo Primo 2. I bought the Rockwell R1 and was pleasantly surprised that it is a medium aggressive razor with a smooth plated finish and a handle with good grip. The R1 build quality is above average but not wonderful. I could not ask for more for 25$ as it is a terrific deal. The included Rockwell blades are too sharp for me and i dislike them. Use Persona USA blades or Astra blades. If you have 40$ then buy the Rockwell 2c instead. Gunmetal plating is my favorite attribute of Rockwell razors as it looks cool. Rockwell safety razors are all good and that is what I have learned.

Great buy, great shave, awesome grip to handle while shaving.

Good value. Easy to use

I’ve been using a safety razor for years and decided to purchase one that had a better weight to it. Unfortunately, the blade angle is so shallow on this model it doesn’t cut any hair. Forget about a close shave, I couldn’t get it to shave at all. No matter what I tried, I couldn’t get it to cut. Weight distribution is great, unfortunately the cut is not. Do not recommend!

So easy to keep clean and it provides a smooth shave everytime. The support on the blade is very strong
