Rockwell R1 - Double Edge Safety Razor

I like the quality and so far I am impressed with how it works.

I have been using one of those 3 bladed cartridge razors for over 20 years, I swore by it. I got to the point where it was costing me a fortune for the blades and started to look for alternates. I read a ton of reviews about the R1 and figured I’d give it a try for the cost of a pack of 3 blade cartridges. All I can say is OMG, total game changer. I was nervous about using a real “razor blade” as I didn’t want to cut myself to pieces, but my very first shave was cut and nick free! I will NEVER go back to the other razors. I’m ordering a second one now for my travel case. I don’t leave reviews on stuff usually, but this is truly worth it. I even told folks at work about it, and 6 people ordered one while we were on the call (true story). 5 Stars all day!

I've been wet shaving for two years and this was my second safty razor. My first was a Vander Hagen similar to this one. However I dropped that razor and ruined it. I wanted to try the R1 since it's available in gunmetal. So compared to the Vander Hagen this Rockwell R1 has a wider handle, slightly heavier weight, a bit more aggressive head and I think better build quality. The end result is a smoother shave. Combined with a sharper blade this razor really does perform well. I also have a Rockwell T2 that my wife bought me recently, but I still come back to the R1 once in a while because it's so easy and convenient to use. I might pickup a second in the future, but this one still looks brand new like the day I bought it. Definitely an excellent first razor or an affordable razor for everyday use.

The first few shaves are the hardest to get the technique down but after that it’s good.

I absolutely love my razor. Very good quality and I love that it's eco friendly!

Loved the 6s. Always will. But this thing is terrible. Haven't had so many weepers for years. Dont give this to a rookie unless you hate him.

Really like the razor and handle. Best shave ive had in a long time. Some instructions for newbies would be nice though

I have only used my new razor a few times but overall, I am impressed! Very nice weight and handle and I feel better knowing that I am significantly reducing my plastic waste by switching to a safety razor. You do need to be careful about your angles when you use it since the blades are super sharp (which is a good thing!)

Easy to use. Close shave. No irritation. Eco friendly. Everyone should get one!

Really pleased with this razor! I was done with the cream strip/scented/multi-blade plastic razors and wanted to switch to something that wouldn't become an environmental nuisance. So far Rockwell razor has ticked all the boxes.
