Rex Envoy - Quickfire Review

The Rex Envoy! The second razor offering by Rex Supply Co. which keeps the attention to detail in both manufacturing finish and overall design aesthetic. An all-stainless 316L marine grade razor, does it shave on par with its price point? Should this be your next consideration or a hard pass? How does it stack against the Rex Ambassador? Watch this video to find out!

Great review- thank you! We have new packaging come out soon for all products (will replace both envoy and ambassador current packaging) and I think people will really like it. Hate to say it but the envoy box is a "temp" box so to speak. Customers will be able to purchase the new packaging for a nominal cost (I think around $5) if they so wish.

[@TheShavingTulsan]

Excellent to hear! Thank you for the update and for watching! 🍻

Glad I found this channel and thoroughly detialed review. You just gained a subscriber, and Matt/Razor Emporium will have an order placed this week. Remain safe and sound, sir!

Great review! A top class safety razor with excellent quality! 👋😀👍

[@davesheppard8797]

My Envoy came in a really nice box with firm foam that the razor sits in snuggly and won't move or drop out if held upside down. My first proper shave with it today (I had done a half & half shave against my Outlaw). I used a new Gillette Nacet blade and proraso white soap. A really close smooth shave. This razor reminds me of a surgical instrument. Beautiful machining and Tollerances. Dave.

[@TheShavingTulsan]

It's a stunning razor!! I know they gave recently updated the packaging so the whole experience is a very positive one. Can easily recommend this razor to anyone. Glad you are enjoying yours! 🍻

@@TheShavingTulsan Yes, it's about an hour after my Envoy shave now and my face feels great.....and silky smooth!! 😊😊

[@karankaval6745]

Great review, Tim. I like the den shave (doesn't echo as it does in the bathroom), and it's very reminiscent of the way Matt from Razor Emporium does his reviews (apt considering that you're reviewing the Envoy). In a vacuum where the Ambassador didn't exist, the Envoy would have been an absolute no-brainer. However, I personally couldn't justify getting the Envoy already being an Ambassador owner. Nonetheless, I'm glad that this offering exists.

[@davidhill3939]

Exceptionally well done video: Content, chilled out music, den ambiance. Thanks for the review. My Envoy arrives tomorrow.

[@TheShavingTulsan]

Let me know what you think of the Envoy! Very well made razor. Thanks for the support and I’m glad you enjoyed the video/atmosphere!

[@jaquta69]

Just bought this razor, its everything you said and more. Thanks

[@therussellcheek]

Thanks so much Tim - sounds like a great razor..... Looking forward to the Rocnel.....!

[@GeorgeKanatas]

You left no stone unturned Tim! This video is the definition of what a review video must be. 👌 I have a feeling that you are much more happy with the Envoy than the Ambassador. I would say that it's a more friendly razor without loosing any efficiency. As for the case... a handmade leather case is on its way for mine. 😉

[@TheShavingTulsan]

Leather case! Very nice 👌🏻 and thank you sir! I was much more pleased with the overall experience with the Rex Envoy in comparison to the Ambassador. It just doesn’t seem to be as picky but still gives you a portion of the Ambassador experience in both shave quality and craftsmanship.

[@bradleycred99]

Crackin’ shave and review. I am a very happy Rex Ambassador owner, but it’s good to know how the Envoy compares in performance. Cheers 🍻!

[@TheShavingTulsan]

Thanks for stopping by and the support brother! 💪🏻🍻

[@lg321mbda]

Great job, great review

[@Retroweld]

Thanks. Just ordered mine. 👊

[@dcwilhite]

Great review Tim. I received my Envoy a couple weeks ago and am loving it. I also got the matching stand which makes it look even better.

[@TheShavingTulsan]

The stand is definitely on my radar! Thanks for stopping by brother! 🍻

[@dcwilhite]

Btw, I’m just north of you in Bartlesville.

[@TheShavingTulsan]

Small world!!

[@razatheninja]

Great review. After watching your video I almost want to get one but I can't since I have the Rex ambassador so I'll stick with that on setting 3 if I need my envoy fix :) Great shave!

[@TheShavingTulsan]

Haha thank you Raza! I always appreciate all of your support! It’s definitely tempting to want to own both, they are incredibly well made. Just glad I at least own the Envoy!

[@Samuel-ge7im]

Great video Tim.

[@TheShavingTulsan]

Thank you sir!

Excellent review 👏 👌 👍

[@georgemakuca8870]

Can you use it on daily basis?

[@m2shaves]

Great video Tim. I enjoyed this video in the Den. Nice to see your collection behind you. Out of curiosity what is the date code of the Rex Ambassador you reviewed?

[@TheShavingTulsan]

I just checked. It’s 1074N2

[@m2shaves]

The Shaving Tulsan I’ve got a P1 and I’m finding it still the same way but I’ve only tried a few different blades. Like you said it’s really subjective in the end when it comes to blades. For me Voshkod has given me great shaved but a persona red was harsh in this razor. I’ll try a feather next and see what that’s like. I use a feather in the EJ 3one6 and it’s smooth.

[@TheShavingTulsan]

Let me know the results!

[@andydixon914]

[@lg321mbda]

Hi Tim, do you mind if I ask you about some razor? I saw that you have used the ambassador and wondered if you have already shaved with the rockwell T2, so what's the best between this two?

[@TheShavingTulsan]

Ambassador is a razor with both aggression/blade feel. It really depends on what you like. I know plenty of guys that lean towards more blade feel, keeps you aware of where the blade is and what it's cutting. Even at the lowest setting it is one of the more aggressive razors I've used. I tried the Model T and would pass on that, but have not tried the newest iteration, the T2. Hopefully they've fixed my gripes that I had with the Model T.
