Pros

  • Idk what the best is. I'd use my rockwell with the 5 plate probably. Maybe the 4. Depends on the day.
  • Karve- before the muhle and Rockwell guys get here
  • I use a rockwell for t2ss. I don't adjust it much as I shave every day. But if I do go a few days and have significant facial hair the adjustment is fantastic!
  • You can get a Rockwell with just the most Popular R1/R3 plate; or just spend a bit more and just get a henson and have a good razor that will last
  • It’s a top 3 razor in my collection next to my Rockwell and 50’s fat boy

Cons

  • I have the Rockwell. It's not a Fatboy killer.

  • I also have quite poor fine motor control, so I don't want to use a DE safety like Rockwell or mekur.
  • I settled on a gentle razor (not the standard Merkur's or Rockwells that get suggested often for beginners).

I am a Rockwell user, and I have inserts to adjust the gap (setting from 1 to 6). 1 is very mild but creme and whiskers quickly fill the gap, so that I feel I need to rinse after one full pass (say chin to top of cheek). I shave using the 3, which is likely medium, and I can do half of my face before rinsing.

Rockwell, well, there are 6 plates and you’ll find which one you like best.
