Hi Kevy, thanks for sharing. I tried my first shave today with the 6S, I used plate 4 and 2, smooth as butter, no nicks or scrapes, absolutely no skin irritation afterwards. I used the Rockwell razors that were offered. I'm 56 years old, used cartridges all my life, this is my 4th Safety Razor shave, the first 3 were from the Henson M. I believe the 6S has taken over rotation. My first stroke with 6S was jaw dropping, I heard it working but I didn't feel a dam thing, and all this mass of whiskers gone. Highly recommend.

Good evening Kevy! Great list. Some of those razors are not very well known, so thanks for the introductions/reminders. My list: 1. Muhle Rocca R95 V4 (smoothest shaving with above average efficiency) 2. Rex Ambassador (Most efficient. smoother on the lower settings) 3. Rex Envoy (decent balance of smoothness and efficiency) 4. Edwin Jagger 3ONE6 all stainless (should be ranked higher, but for the blade clamping not rigid/blade chatter ATG. Can cause weeper) 5. Above The Tie M2 Atlas (efficient yet rough. Leaves face full of weepers) The only true disappointment in the bunch is the ATT M2. I want to like this razor. It is well built and a classic design. Best for WTG and XTG passes.

I agree that there is just something about Rockwell 6 razors that give a comfortable shave regardless of gap chosen. For “beauty” I really like the black handle and cap with red baseplate. Clearly a personal aesthetic thing there. I would add another razor I truly love: RazoRock BBS. It’s incredibly smooth and non-irritating to skin even with Nacet or Feather. Shallow shaving angle because of the 60 degree bend of the blade which also snugs the blade in tight. With Executive Shaving Outlaw handle like one you showed it’s a stunner to my eye. The RazoRock Baby Smooth is same razor in Aluminum for those who prefer a lighter weight (and less expensive) option although the BBS is still quite affordable. Maybe because I shaved for many years with Schick injectors I still have days I prefer a lighter razor. This is true especially when shaving my neck upward since weight there is no help and in fact the lighter razors don’t need as much knurling as the heavier ones do. The later points I have heard only a few remark upon. Kevin, what’s your take on my later points? Have you tried the BBS? I have RazoRock Game Changer (.68) and Lupo (SS and Aluminum versions) too and while these are very good razors I still find myself coming back to and preferring the BBS and BabySmooth. Again I’d be interested in your take on the BBS especially with Nacet or even Feather blade. I do prefer the relative lack of blade feel and chatter in the BBS and I’m not “macho” about aggressive razors because I shave almost every day and I’ve got sensitive skin - especially on my neck - as many do. I’d rather as you’ve pointed out make one more pass with milder razor than go for broke (and blood and burn) with an overly aggressive first pass. Again, I’ve heard you say similar things but would be interested in any updated opinions you might have. Always enjoy your videos!

I agree with you. I enjoy a milder razor with a sharp blade over an aggressive razor. Ive not tried the BBS. I do own the aluminium Lupo and I really enjoy that.

I do like a razor that has great balance, like the Outlaw razor. Cheers. Kevy 👍

@@kevyshaves4109 Thanks so much for your reply. I agree on all your points. I’d really like to know what you think of BBS/Baby Smooth. I would say similar in aluminum to Lupo only better. I sometimes put Russian military two-part aluminum handle on the aluminum Lupo for a really cool and light travel razor. (I throw the plastic heads of these away ;-) I can’t spare a Stainless Steel BBS but would be happy to sent you an aluminum Baby Smooth for your thoughts. My email is mvendrel@gmail.com Send me your shipping address and I’ll send the aluminum Baby Smooth off to you. The extra new one I have is in Blue because they’ve been out of natural aluminum (silver) and black as of late. I sometimes put another longer handle on these but there is a limitation in that the under aspect of the baseplate has indent for smallish top of handle so any handle with larger top won’t work unless one was to use rigid washer - a bit much for me. The Russian two-part handle does fit on the Baby Smooth though. . . I’ll include one of those for you.

If your into DE stainless razors and like a excellent mid range it should give most a excellent shave, I find it a carefree high efficentcy shave & nice mid range comfort. #1Razorock SS Lupo 2nd Gen .72- mid range, easy going shave with excellent shave results. #2 Razorock SS Wunderbar slant - mid upper range, light touch gives excellent shave results. #3 Razorock SS Game changer .84 milder mid range, easy going shave with a Kai SS blade gives excellent results. Have some great shaves!

Hopefully it goes unnoticed that I'm a total fanboy. 🤣🤣🤣 Have a great week and happy shaves to everyone!

I shave a lot more carefully with the Envoy as it looks and feels like a surgical instrument straight out of Harley St. There is not a lot of audible feedback from it. The Outlaw has very loud feedback and on first use you think "My God, this is aggressive!!" Then you realise that the razor is gliding very smoothly over your face and getting close but you don't feel like its going to bite you. With the Envoy I always think that it could bite me really easily. This sounds silly but the Envoy razor "feels" mega sharp. Also you now have the choice of heads for the Outlaw. Mild and more aggressive. Both though give that great audible feedback! The mild plate is around a plate 3 on a Rockwell, or an EJD89, Mulhe R89 or Merkur 34c. The more aggressive Outlaw head is around plate 5 on a Rockwell. The Outlaw and Envoy are both great razors. Kevy shaves no1 non adjustable is the Outlaw. Everyone's skin is different but let's face it.....kevy knows his razors!! It is also my favourite non adjustable too! Dave.

@@davesheppard8797 thank you Dave for the detailed answer! Interesting, it sounds like both give very close shaves but the outlaw is more forgiving... I shave every 2/3 days and I like razors where you feel the blade but there's still "room for error", so the outlaw might be better. Regular or mild? That it the question... Does the regular have a little more bite than 34C/EJ89 but with similar comfort?

@@lucapnz2980 I only ordered the mild today! 😁. The standard Outlaw is more aggressive than an R89, De89, and 34c. I would buy the standard Outlaw as it is a mid aggressive razor but smooth. The Envoy and Outlaw are about the same level of aggression but the Outlaw, as I said is smoother. It is far from being a beginners razor. You have to be careful with the Outlaw too but it definitely has the edge over the Envoy, EJ 3one6, Muhle Rocca and Executive Shaving's Braveheart. Please feel free to ask any more questions, I am only too glad to help. Dave.

Wow Kevy !!!! It is interesting to see your top 6 now, Edwin Jagger does not appear in any position, now you are at a more advanced level you choose based on more issues such as balance, performance, I must admit that I like that, by the way my six safety razors: Mühle - Mühle - Mühle -Mühle R41 above all !!!! Lol 😂😂😂

I own 4 out of your six, but would have Outlaw #2, Rockwell 6S #3, Carbon #4, and Gamechanger .84 as maybe #6. My clear #1 is Wolfman WR2 razor 1.05 SB and my #5 is Haircut & Shave Black T. Razorock Lupo is in running for #6 with GC.

If you want an excellent shave for minimal cost, time and effort try this: Q-Shave adjustable razor (Merkur clone for $20) and Creemo. Remember, a close nick free shave is 90% technique and 10% equipment.

I don't think any razor is much if any better than the Rockwell. The 68 for my face is a close second at my house on the game changer.
