Rockwell R1 - Double Edge Safety Razor

I was so excited to brag about my new rockwell razor. I've followed this brand for a very long time. Always admiring from afar. When I finally was able to afford one, i jumped at the opportunity but unfortunately it never arrived. The tracking claims it was delivered to my mailbox. I however don't have an available mailbox so there's no way they delivered it and it was on my front door either like the other 2 packages I had waiting for me. USPS have refused a refund and I can't get a hold of Rockwell to communicate with them my issue.

For buying the R-1 razor and 100 razors, even at a razor a week (which they last MUCH longer than that) you’re paying $.21 a week to shave! Why buy a pack of 4 razors that costs $26 when you can use the same product your granddaddy used and pay a fraction of the price?!
If it isn’t the best value you purchase all year, I don’t know what will.

Provato R1,devo dire che è un ottimo rasoio,per chi vuole iniziare ad usare il rasoio di sicurezza,e per chi cerca qualcosa per tutti i giorni, abbinato alle lame Rockwell ,ti da un buon Bbs,consigliato ad neofiti ed esperti di wet shaving.

As per the conversation on Facebook, your company agreed to refund my shipping costs. Your company then stopped replying and has still not issued the refund. Very poor customer service.

The Rockwell R1-Chrome is more than just a beginners razor. I find it’s only default setting sits closer to an R3 ( 6C setting) interms of the blades position. It has a great weight. It’s not slippery in the hand either. Feels great on my face. Perfect for a first DE razor as well. The construction is top notch on this baby! The cost factor on this is a steal! Highly recommended! Rockwell you did it again!!!

Timely delivery and perfect beginners razor

I believe this is the perfect razor to start the transition from shaving with a disposable razor! It is very light weight and you should use your same shaving technique to get started.The great advantage is that you only have to replace the razor blade since the razor is made from quality metals. This will save you money and help to save our environment too. Definitely worth giving it a try.

Very nice razor overall. The overall finish is excellent. It has a good weight and produces a good shave. The gap in the “doors” is not equal so one side of the blade sticks out further than the other. I guess this is to be expected at this price point.

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!

Works ok, but you got to be carefull with it or you mightl nic your self.

Never arrived

I love it and it takes me back 50 years

I wanted to do a return on at least one of the razors because my shaving is advanced beyond all of the different plates, which are a hassle, but they won't return my emails. Pretty sad. I guess their 60 day guarantee is phony because they're hiding in Canada.

This is my first time using a safety razor and I had no trouble. I'm sure it's possible to cut yourself if you really try, but I had no nicks or problems.

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.

I've been using safety razors for 15+ years and I recently broke my Merkur, but had trouble with blade alignment and they wouldn't respond, so I am trying other razors. This provides a good shave for the value. Not an aggressive cut for thicker beards, but works okay.

This is a great razor. It's got a great grip and super secure screw-in mechanism to hold the blade in the razor. The razors themselves are super sharp and flexible but I miraculously haven't sliced myself open yet. As long as you move slowly, with short strokes, and check the angle you're using with the razor, you shouldn't have a single problem. Using this razor has helped me cut down on a ton of waste, as well, as I only have to buy recyclable blades from this point on. I'm super in love with this purchase and recommend it to everyone I know. Frankly, shaving is kind of a special treat now. I've had no in-grown hairs and very little irritation and it delivers a really good shave.
