Does the 6S feel the same on the skin as the T2SS? Is the T2SS made in china? Rockwell customer service hasn't answered this question after 3 email inquiries. I know the 6S is made in America. Was however told by Rockwell, the T2SS doesn't require tearing down, or any oil for routine maintenance. That seems odd about no oil.

That's a pretty razor. The Futur is a full-zamak razor ("Griffstück und Rasierkopf aus Zinkdruckguss") - same as the 41c/42c btw - not a brass handle, unlike those of the 15c/22c/23c/25c/33c/34c/37c. Interestingly the Merkur open comb base plate is brass, top plate is always zamak. The regular Merkur head made of brass would be so cool - that's all the innovation I'd want from them. Next time put some Bepanthen on your Aui, or simply some classic Nivea Creme, it also contains Panthenol. Did you know Beiersdorf initially marketed classic Nivea as a pre-shave towards men? My Opa never used moisturizer or anything scented, not even AS lotions, because he considered it "Weiberkram", as he referred to it - his fragrance was "Korn" and cigarettes.😂 I'm pretty sure occasionally he secretly used my Oma's Nivea though.

Heiko, I have very sensitive skin and I am very interested in this SR. Would you recommend it for my sensitive skin case, using it in the lowest settings? I'm from Brazil, sorry for my english 🤣🤣

Nicely done Heiko💈💈💈

Heiko, if you don’t mind me asking, what's your favorite off camera DE razor blade, which is both sharp and comfortable, consistently for you?

Brush having a longer handle also easier and more comfortable to hold!

Great shave Heiko. Glad you received the package I sent you. I will put that brush on my wish list. Just a reminder that the difference between the two presheaves is that the black one has charcoal in it to help exfoliate the skin. Have a wonderful week. 👍

Greetings Heiko, I use the Pheonix preshaves straight up (worked in, without washing it off and reapplying) with shave cream/soap on top. Face or bowl thather works well with the preshave sticks or cubes, as does the one from Matt at Razor Emporium. The timeless bowl is also a winner, as is the case with all timeless products I've used. Rex certainly have razors well made to last generations. The normal or slant are efficient and feel great. I use thumb and index finger to locate and hold the blade on the topcap during assembly. Works for me in many razor models. I still use Alum and toner (Thayers lemongrass mainly), plus balm in the routine. There are some outstanding combos out there (incl brushes and soaps) that will set set you up for the day. Great vid, good to see. Cheers, John

Hi. In your opinion is better Merkur Progress or Parker Variant Open Comb?

Moin Heiko, geschichtlich ein sehr interessantes Thema! Mein Vater hat als deutschstämmiger im Sudetenland seine Wurzeln, also in Böhmen. Nach 1945 wurde er und seine gesamte Familie gequält, misshandelt und schlussendlich als Volksdeutsche aus ihrer Heimat vertrieben. Ein unschönes Kapitel als Folge des 2. Weltkrieges, bei dem Millionen von Deutschen ihre Heimat verloren, ob nun in Tschechien, wie mein Vater, oder wie meine Schwiegermutter in Stettin (heute polnisch besetzt). VG Jörg

Heiko, Let me know if you ever want to make some room in your shave den, happy to help you out brother and tahe the Proof off your hands...😉🤪

Thanks Heiko, Been thinking about using one of these for head shaves but the cost exchange wise with Australia is not great at the moment. Still good looking razor! Cheers mate Pete

Hi there, love the channel, very informative. The choices out there is stratospheric isn’t it. I’ve been using the same Wilkinson Sword twist (butterfly) razor for years upon years and my blade of choice is the Astra. May I suggest to your followers that they buy the sleeve of mix blades and see what works for them. My only critique, very small one. When you read off the ingredients within the soap, after shave or whatever, it gets long. And to be honest it doesn’t hold any value. And what do we the follower get out of it, unless your a chemist not much at all. Your channel as is, is fantastic. How fantastic, I rewatch episodes, that’s how fantastic it is. Thanks. Mike

Gillette Tech with Ikon handle smoother shaves First Impression. wheelchair larry

Nice music. Question: I'm new to wet shaving. If a get any stinging from the alum block, is that an indicator my technique is way off, or I need to try new razor blades right away?

Great review

I have the Fine 20mm brush, which I love and use daily. I prefer smaller knots. It looks nice too.

Very good re the kid’s computer, imho.

Hey Heiko, I just got a Gillette Good Will from 1931 almost new in original packaging at an antique store in Tucson, AZ. Can’t wait to try it

Thanks for a great review

I remember seeing a review of the Pal a couple years ago, I think it was Subie, and he explained that the Pal adjustment mechanism was different than Schick in that the Pal mechanism worked like a swing from large gap - low exposure to the other extreme of small gap - large exposure Here you go: th-cam.com/video/DEZU1DgXSRs/w-d-xo.html explanation begins at 1:35

Heiko - Since the injector razor blades are harder/stiffer than a SE or DE blade, you should be able to get double the shaves out of the injector blade than with a DE and SE blades. Yes, the injector blades are more expensive per blade, but being you can get much more shaves from each blade, it off-sets the cost of each blade. 🪒

Just picked up a NOS Pal yesterday with case and original instructions. Loaded with a new Personna 20 count injector. Major difficulties in getting the blade inserted and aligned. First shave was not pleasant at all. Ordered some Schick yellows per the previous comment and will try a different shave angle as suggested. Too early to give up yet😂

I have my schick injector razor when I was in high school, now I am retired and I still have my razor it's very great shave, I got Parker injector razor it's very good to, nice combo shave you had today 🪒 💈

The gap doesn't change on the pal. The gaurd/safety bar moves in and out, changing the blade reveal. I just bought a second pal adjustable as I'm liking them better against the grain than the schick... and I'm a schick fan. Pal adjustable problems 1. QC issues from the factory 2. Wrong shave angle ( should be riding the bar, not the cap like a schick ) 3. Poor blades ( use yellow schick )

NeXT time buddy try to shave when you have beard 👍

Could you please tell me what the Merkur (razor blades) are like. Are they Astra green smooth, or RK or Durby tugging like? I have a tough beard Thanks

I liked the Sentry on my face but it was a bit aggressive on my head. I bought the Konsul and it's nice dialing it back to 2 or 3 on my head. Great review. - Kevin

I wonder if Supply used a thicker key due to going with plastic and needing extra stiffness/strength of the key to work and align consistently ?

Is this a copy of the RR Gamechanger or the Mamba?

Hello Heiko, comparing Yaqi zephyr with yintal stainless steel razor that you reviewed it before, which one is better for very sensitive skin? Thanks

I heard someone say about putting menthol crystals into the proraso green and wow it's a magical sensation like a mouthwash for your skin lol, might dry it but I use heavy moisturiser

What brand is the brush??

Amazing Shave Heiko !!!!!

Great shave! I appreciate you leaving in the struggle to find the word "sandalwood." The struggle is real. Happens to me all the time!

Great shave, I have a type m myself, lovely razor 👊👊

another good reason to shave ion the shower. the shower head cleans the head better

FINALLY somebody is discussing the possibility of clogs happening with an injector razor!

Great review Heiko. Did you ever get some more info on the single edge blades? Have a great weekend. 🎃👍

What i love about Injector and AC blades is how thick and rigid they are. They have 0 flex and chatter unlike a lot of DE razors that aren't sufficiently held down by the top caps of the razor.

The first ones weren't great. They worked it out. They definitely got better in time. Or at least mine supposedly from the late 30's was rough and it would cut you so easily. I have another from the late 60's. It cuts reasonably well. I have the Supply Pro also. It's great. Get you one. You probably have one though.

Nice vid. Have used a Schick, on and off, since the early 70, and it worked well enough. For the old Schick Injector to still have a following, speaks for itself. Supply also works well enough. Agree with the injector comment, would be great to use the Supply Injectorwith other injector razors. Despite numerous attempts with varying blade types and setting, the Parker does not work for me. It has thus been retired to the display box. Nice mix of products. Enjoy the weekend, cheers, John

Big Schick injector fan! There are some OUTSTANDING Japanese injector razors & blades (Feather/Kai & Black Label) .

Nice shave! Slinging the lather around is half the fun.

Awesome video ! 👌 I almost hate that my cheap injector razors are my favorites out of a very, very expensive razor collection. I just rotated back to my schick adjustable from my Sabre, and I missed it 😂. I love my Sabre v2, but the blade selection is poo. With the injectors, we have a few excellent options, my favorite being the yellow schick (chick) followed by the schick b20. Looking forward to the next video !

Hey guy I agree with you about the idea about why certain razor brands don’t want to sell different blade to be honest they don’t want to give away the control they have with selling their products. And also the shave market is very tough.
