Enhanced Henson Shaving AL-13M++ Vs. Rockwell 6C

I have had a ton of comments, asking what plate the Rockwell 6R's is compatible to the Henson AL-13 M ++ version. So, I created this video comparing them both using a gillette nacet blade. I was actually shocked what plate I had to use to get a compatible shave when you compare aggression of one razor to the other. This was not a fair fight from the beginning but the subscribers asked for it so here you go. Huge sale going on right now at Rockwell check out the links below.

Great read. Thanks for sharing your experience.

[@BartBuzz]

Glad you did this comparison. I have the Henson+(mild) and I always thought the R2/R3 plate on my 6S was about the same as the Henson in efficiency. And I agree that the 6S is a smoother shaver. In my experience, the 6S is hands down better than any other safety razor I've used. It's so versatile. That's why at double the price I don't have a need for the T2 adjustable.

[@OhioShaves]

[@Bobdixon_Moonvarga_Dancer_III]

They’ll have my money if they make a stainless steel or brass aggressive razor.

[@LightBrand]

I'm 99% sure it has to do with their machines and the difficulty they'd encounter and have to account for when dealing with all these other metals...aside from the material cost alone. Upgrading from Aluminum to Titanium for 200 bucks extra isn't all because Titanium cost that much more or Henson wants to rip you off in this dumb way. But rather what it takes to cut Titanium using their method does indeed up the cost by about 200 bucks. And if they just simply charge a lil more for a stainless steel or brass version in between the Aluminum and Titanium model they won't be competitive with the other 50 dollars ones.

[@rogeliorodriguez1533]

No way. The Henson is a light razor it is what it is...if you prefer a handle heavy clunker get a different razor, The henson requires little pressure and a heavier handle can change the henson feel if that's what your going for.

Switched for the cost savings over cartridges. Well, after doing some research and watching your videos, I decided to go for it. I purchased the gunmetal Rockwell 6C, Mûhle soap, Bloc osma alum, brush, and lather bowl. I would like to thank you for your videos, because that was the best shave of my life! Man! First time with no redness or irritation the following day that i can ever remember. I'm never going back!

[@MontrealLather]

I bought a henson mild when they came out, gave it to a family member I thought it was too mild. Bought a new one in medium its better on agression. The only thing i can say i dont like about the henson is the fact that its aluminum it drags a bit more compared to a plated razor or even a stainless raszor.

[@OhioShaves]

Reads like you need to try a different de blade. Mine doesn't drag, it slices right through the hairs, in a very smooth and comfortable manner

[@MontrealLather]

@OhioShaves Hairs get cut no issue, I have tried many blades over my 11 years of wetshaving, I mean the actual razor itself the material feels like it imparts more friction on the skin than a chromed razor. I have a 2c and a 6s and like a couple dozen other razors. Henson is the only one that feels that way. It's still a good razor, however.

Man, I just got Henson a month ago and already want to get the Rockwell. Henson is great. Way better than any cartridge razor. I could never get a BBS shave on my mustache. My face gets shredded going against the grain on my mustache with a cartridge. The Henson? First time ever a BBS shave. I can go about 2 days between shaves before I get a significant stubble. All that said. It takes a lot more time with the Henson. I use the Mild version. I need to take multiple strokes on an area for each pass to get all the hair because of how mild it is. So, now I feel like I need to get the Rockwell for a little bit more aggression. Just to shorten the time needed to get all the hair.

[@OhioShaves]

I like your train of thought

I have the Henson mild which i use with the feather japan made blade instead of the RK Henson Indian or Gillette china and the Feather are way better, smoother and stay sharp longer... i do not own a Rockwell but having to change the plate for any reason during a shaving is kinda lame i mean the Henson is one plate all around that's it

Recently got into safety razors. I started with a Giesen & Forsthoff Gentle Shaver, then the Merkur 34c. Neither seemed to give me the aggressiviness I needed. Ordered both the Rockwell 6C (Chrome) and the The Parker Variant Adjustable to see which I liked better. I'll let you know my thoughts when hey arrive. Your videos are very helpful. Thanks, and keep them coming.

[@OhioShaves]

Keep us updated

[@trevorc6793]

Im intrigued, what was your conclusion Matt?

[@Neuroanalisis]

The only thing holding the henson back from being the perfect razor is it's weight. Pairing the henson head with a heavy handle greatly improves the shave. I don't think the titanium is heavy enough. They need to make a heavier head. I would buy that immidiately. Great vid.

[@OhioShaves]

Thank you much

[@SourDonut99]

They are different razors design wise. Rockwell has negative blade exposure. You have to apply a little bit of pressure for your skin to slightly bend into the blade gap and that gives you a shave. Henson has positive blade exposure. So the blade stick out a tiny bit and that gives you your shave. The main difference is Henson is easy. You just press it against your face. It's flat and it shaves you every single time. The Rockwell needs a little bit of user input. You need to apply the right amount of pressure. Too much and you get razor burn, too little and you're not going to take off hairs. If you get some experience, the Rockwell is probably better.

I have a beard and I typically keep it at about 2 weeks growth (so not that long). I shave an angle on my cheek as well as under my chin and then shave down my neck. I almost never let this growth (the areas that I shave) be longer than 2 or 3 days. I typically shave daily to keep the lines clean. Is there a razor you would recommend for this? Perhaps one of these two? Also, how decent and safe are safety razors for shaving other parts of the body? Thanks to anyone who responds.

I now have a leaf Thorne, which I like. No matter how careful I am it does does seem to nic me. I seem to always get a nic when I’m in a rush lol. It’s hard to get under my nose so I sometimes get a nic there or my neck. Anyway, I’ve been looking at the Henson medium vs the Rockwell 6c or 6s.

I really enjoy the Henson mild version. The medium aggression version is still at Smith shed so they are both good.

There is nothing milder than the #1 plate on the 6S/6C. Just change your plate and try different settings. The Henson isn't that great. Overhyped because of good marketing and people who praise it often didn't try other razors. Different blades can completely change the way a razor behaves, and technique as well. I'd say stick with your Rockwell and experiment different plates and blades.. The Henson is better if you have no hair to shave. The Rockwell is better the rest of the time.

@@OhioShaves For me personally, the Henson created a "dragging" effect because of the straight angles. Razor would literally stick to my skull, but wasn't aggressive enough to actually give a close shave. That's a bad combo and created irritation every time.. Medium didn't work either. I wasn't gonna waste money trying the third one haha.

[@casehunter8376]

@@OhioShaves that’s what I thought I remembered you saying in one of your videos. I’m considering buying the 6S. Which one would you recommend, the C or the S?

[@jamesdeluxa9782]

The problem I have with Rockwell is that their design isn't stable. The blades I use (gillete wilkinsons) dont line up properly on the 6C and 6S.. Every other razor I have from other companies works fine and auto stabalizes the blade center.. The rockwell is clearly flawed. Tried 3 of them.

[@jamesdeluxa9782]

I ended up on a razorock GC84.. and its best shaver I've used.

[@OhioShaves]

That's a first for me to read someone stating that the Rockwell are misaligned

[@jamesdeluxa9782]

@@OhioShaves Not just me.. Problem has been all over shave forums for years.

[@wadeschreffler2161]

Would you say the Rockwell is your favorite head shaving razor or do you have another favorite for head shaving?

[@OhioShaves]

Leaf shave 3 blades is the best I have ever used. Easy and fast

[@dsanchez9703]

Bro, does this Simpson t3 shed hairs often cause i might pull the trigger on one

[@OhioShaves]

No. I lost about 6 hairs in total. I do rinse and towel dry it after every shave. It’s a wow brush. Your going to love it

...wow 20 min to shave?

20 minutes to give you my thoughts

@@OhioShaves ...I'm 58 and I think shaving is important but you take it to a whole new level, that's all.

[@nandurkarpranav]

The weight heavy rockwell gives the perception of smoothness.If you use the rockwell handle with the henson head it would improve it's smoothness as well, and also It would also increase some aggresiveness....the henson ++ version might feel like rockwel's plate 4 in this case. Using the rockwel's handle in both razors would be a much fairer comparison IMHO.

The Rockwell will not thread onto the Henson

[@MrAjjordan]

Great videos but i don't really think you map your face and shave accordingly to your grain.

[@GenXAccord]

I don't find the Nacet to be that sharp of a blade. It's not as dull as a Bolzano or Parker but it's not as sharp as a Wilkinson Sword or Permasharp. I think you'd get a much better shave with either of those two. These grey, coarse stubble needs a sharp blade. It's not the same as shaving some arm/shoulder hair away from your favorite tattoos.

[@OhioShaves]

Good to know

[@GenXAccord]

@@OhioShavesI recant that. The Nacet is plenty sharp just like the Wilkinson Sword and Kai.
