Rex Supply Co. Buying Guide - Safety Razors, Straight Razors, Heirloom Accessories Made in USA

[@BucketList-zk5me]

I found your channel a few weeks ago when I started looking into ways to prevent shaving irritation. It's been a tremendous help and I've switched over to DE shaving and I'll never look back. I've already raided the local antique stores and brought home two Gillette slims, and a NOS Brownie (currently using one of the slims). I was just looking for a better way to shave (which I found) but walked away with a bit of a hobby (not sure I should thank you for that lol). Your appreciation of history, engineering, and quality definitely shows in your Rex lineup. Keep up the great work!

[@dappershaves]

welcome to wetshaving and congrats on you antique find, regards dapper shaves

[@dthys]

Nice review! Now I have more knowledge about Rex Supply Co's different razors! 👋😀👍

[@darrengray1849]

After using the Konsul XL for a couple of months, I can say it’s worth the money. You can get a good shave with razors that cost less, but the Rex just feels different. It feels more efficient and smoother. I love the way my face feels after I use my Konsul XL.

[@dappershaves]

[@erictinker7328]

I’m sold on the REX products. Will definately buy a polished Ambassador with stand and travel case. And, all products proudly made in the US of A.

[@michelhouben4233]

A Slanted Envoy will be my first Rex. Great video. A masterclass!

[@aumkar2]

Can’t wait to get my Ambassador. Easily the best looking DE Razor I’ve ever seen. Congratulations on your work Matt!

did you receive your razor yet? how does it shave? regards dapper shaves

Stainless steel handles and screw on and off customizable brush heads thats my answer to wet shaving im sold

Shaving unrelated, but the CPA in me hopes Rex and Razor Emporium 6:04 are separate entities for legal purposes. And although unlikely to be applicable, 199A might be beneficial to some of the partners. Unlikely though. Love your videos and enthusiasm. Very therapeutic and informative. Cheers!

[@RazorEmporium]

Yup 👍

[@bakirzis]

I have several machines, but since I got the Ambassador, I only use this one for three reasons, it shaves perfectly, it has an incredible grip and it goes under the nose easily. Great job to all of you ! Greetings from Greece

well said, its a solid razor, regards dapper shaves

I'm not even a DE shaver, I use a straight razor everyday. But I think im going to buy the ambassador. Very nice presentation 👏

Great video ! Ambassador always gives me the feeling of luxury, firmness and efficiency during shaving, making my everyday habit truly an experience of wellbeing. Although I am very happy with this (and some of my other DE razors) have to admit that I am attempted to get also Konsul, maybe in gold this time …. Matt you make it hard to me not to get another Rex supply razor….

[@brianklocke5971]

Received my Rhodium Envoy a few days ago and it has quickly become my favorite over the Rockwell 6s. Great product - I found you from KenSurfs. Look forward to your future videos. Thanks very much Matt!

[@ZulfkarKhorakiwala]

Matt, I have all the Gillette cartridge Razors from circa 1970 onwards but the Fusion5 is the best I like so far. Also I have 2 Gillette DE razors which is a gold executive 1959 and another a black handle 1969 adjustable both in Mint condition. Thankyou.

[@Gio-ec5pc]

I have the Ambassador. Great razor.

[@LuisFNovelo]

This is an awesome video! Your videos are some of the reasons why I recently moved away from cartridges and into the beautiful world of shaving with a safety razors. I started with an affordable King C Gillette and now I am waiting for a Gillette Slim I bought on Ebay to come in the mail, which I plan to send it over to you guys to have it revamped. I want my next razor to be a Rex, but I am undecided between an Ambassador and a Konsul. I think I will pay a visit to your shop, perhaps being able to see them in person will help me make the decision.

[@denniscool2421]

IMHO a stainless steel single edge razor is needed in Rex’s line up. I’m talking a version of the Leaf Twig/Thorn, but a two piece razor. Possibly get the innovative mode and go for an adjustable 😊

I bought the Envoy almost 2 years ago. It is a great shaving razor. I have considered the konsul or the ambassador. They are well built razors and are built to last . However, I have a hard time spending the money knowing I get a fantastic shave from the Envoy I already own.

[@dr.stevenpennym.d.3241]

You should do a stonewash finish.

[@brianohalloran892]

Absolutely love the Ambassador. I also have the stand, travel case, and shave brush. Everything is made to the highest standards and I’m so proud to own these pieces. Question for you: have you thought about making a travel kit that could hold all of these accessories? I think that would be very helpful on the road! Thank you for all you do!

[@RazorEmporium]

It would be awfully expensive and likely not very popular. I'd like to have a dop bag soon however

[@Shaverboy516]

Excellent video Matt! This was long overdue. The Rex experience definitely exudes quality and luxury. The small details are what separates the brand from the rest!

[@Dimitrius001]

You make some really nice razors. Have you considered offering, and would it be possible to make an open comb version of your razors?

[@RazorEmporium]

Interesting idea

[@CocoboloCowboy]

This video should be called REX RAZORS FOR DUMMY’s, or everything you need to know about Rex Razors. Thanks for the great video Matt, now I need to start saving for a Rex Razor. Think I want long handle adjustable. THINK.💡

[@christopherwilliams3837]

I have all three versions 😂. Now all I need to do is have three sons so I heirloom them down the generations.

[@WolfRanger2008]

I think that this is a fine documentary style presentation that not only informs of the various models but includes a full backstory. In my opinion , there is nothing wrong with a vendor/manufacturer promoting products as well as being a source of general education of the processes in manufacturing that/those products. The only observation that I have which is not completely neutral is this; where I reside there are highly roguish people. I would NEVER take such razors to the gym or health club. Once some of those cats see that wooden box and/or razor; they will make it there mission in life to steal it. Perhaps, showing it off in the guest bathroom at relatives house is a safer example....

[@alphiebot5099]

Awesome video Matt, liked all the razors. I will be waiting for the slanted Envoy ( or whatever you're going to call it). I think it would be cool if you would make kits that have the razor, the case, and the brush, all in one nice display.

[@nomad1517]

Rex is the most North American razor I can think of besides Gillette. It will be mine. Oh yes, It will be mine.

[@The_One_BABA]

Only problem I can see by shaving with a REX razor is, I keep wishing the days away.. like come on morning… I wanna Shave! You need to sell a hair growth serum… can’t grow the beard fast enough🤣

Purchased an Ambassador a couple of moths ago. Wonderful materials and has become my everyday. BUT not overly impressed with the finishing. My top plate has significant imperfections that I would not have expected from a razor at this price point. Quality control seems to be lacking. To be fair, I haven’t brought this up with the vendor or REX but should I have to?

Hi! Thank you for this video. I was wondering if we could take apart the Ambassador razor or Konsul on our own for cleaning or switching the handle between the two??? Is this thing posible or is it something that only you guys can do using some specific tools??? Maybe you can put another video on how to take apart both razors for demonstration purpose. Thank you!

Gillette never put out instructions on taking apart their razors. Clean with dish detergent, an old toothbrush and hot water.

[@mhoke63]

Ever since discovering the slant razor, it has been a dream. I currently use a Merkur 39C. My skin will razor burn on anything and my beard is very thick and strong. The slant razor was a miracle for me. The Konsul is a dream razor, but the price tag makes it a razor that will likely be forever out of my hands... Unless Razor Emotion wants to give me one out of charity and/or Christmas generosity...I would no be opposed to that... Seriously though, if you doubt a slanted razor, try one. It was a life saver for me.

[@kwl189]

Agreed. I had a Merkur 37C and loved it. Sadly the quality control issues with Merkur and high price make it a concern for me with them using chrome finishes, known to erode away over time and blade alignment issues meant I didn’t keep it for long but the shaves it gave were supreme. I want a Konsul but the fact is that unless the price changes or life suddenly becomes more affordable or my salary doubles it will likely not be an affordable purchase for me. Huge shame though as the adjustability is a big feature. Sometimes with heavy growth, need an aggressive first pass before dialling it back down.

[@RHDaveShaves]

Great video, Matt! Does the polishing process make the handle any less "grippy", compared with the base matte finish?

[@RazorEmporium]

You'd need scientific equipment to measure the difference. We aren't removing a lot of material

[@Solrac924]

so it's been > 3 weeks since i've gotten the DE shaving fever. i've been shaving with a DE razor but a new fervor started lately with your videos and with a new slant razor, new brush, a new shaving cream (also your REX Barber Shop cream just arrived today) , new 200-pack of blades, & a new balm. i've been going through several vids everyday & i love your vides the most (honestly), but i just now saw this one again & re-discovered your brush. now i have a question. are there knots sold that screw on & off? i don't any replacement knots sold on either of your sites. are replacements to be sold on your site soon? i love the look of a stainless steel brush but how would it work longterm?

[@RazorEmporium]

[@terrym1065]

Awesome video Matt👍👍 I've been waiting on this for some time, don't know why as I have all three razors since they were made available. Beautiful pieces of craftsmanship, enjoy using each one especially the Konsul. The Envoy gets the least use of the three but still is not neglected. Being the Envoy is "fixed" at about #3 on the Ambassador for comparison, it's fairly aggressive for my skin/beard type but manageable for longer times between shaves. Thought about having them all plated and polished but then the collector came out in me and just couldn't do it. Settings for me: Ambassador-2-2.5, Konsul-1-5+... Excellent work, thanks bro. Enjoy!

[@03focussvt943]

Phoenix, AZ represent! LOL J/K For as much as I hate this pos city, Im glad to see companies like you around.

[@robertcochran7103]

Thank you very much for posting this video. When I first saw the "Envoy" I felt I had to learn more about it. This Guide is exactly what I want and need as a customer. Some time ago, my uncle handed down to me a collection of Gillette razors from the 1950s and 1960s. I've come to realize I want something better quality and more modern than the hand-me-downs. I also have a modern long-handled Merkur and I like the weight of that very much. Something about the handle and weight give me confidence. I rarely nick myself when using the Merkur, but do nick myself with the lighter weight Gillettes. So I'm thinking I can get the same or a better experience with one of the razors featured here. Overall, this is an extremely helpful video to me.

[@ryanburbridge]

Made in USA? Frustrating when companies intentionally hide the fact that they are pushing import garbage. 2:05 answer that lol. That’s what i get for typing while watching. I just bought my first safety razor from Yates because i wanted something made in USA. I’ll definitely be checking out this company in the future.

[@RazorEmporium]

Yes made in USA.

[@erictingsee]

Any local suppliers in Asia specifically in the Philippines?

[@aryanambastha4050]

I am curious about why the ambassador isn't offered in a twist to open version. Is it a future idea?

[@RazorEmporium]

Massive engineering feat. Something no one has done in a CNC machines razor to date. It's a hope we can accomplish some day soon

[@jeffdowns2146]

Hey, this video is most helpful. Thanks for doing the video.

[@johnnewell5025]

Question: do the Rhodium-plated or highly polished versions have less friction (better "glide") than the brushed stainless steel finish? I think that the Rockwell 6C glides better than the 6S, but the finish (bead blasted?) on the SS 6S is probably higher-friction than the brushed finish on the Rex razors, so I'm not sure the 6C/6S comparison would apply to the Rex razors. I'd be interested in your comments, and thanks!

[@RazorEmporium]

Yes

[@julienbernard4343]

Salut. J’ai un rasoir Rex Envoy depuis 6 mois et c’est le meilleur rasoir que j’ai pu essayer. C’est devenu mon seul rasoir!!! Merci Matt pour la qualité et la perfection de ces produits qui me rappelle les gillette vintage 👍 J’ai également le stand pour une présentation au top 👌

[@antonio_fidalgo]

It would be cool if the travel case had a blade compartment (if it don't have it already). It is a fine item, as the razors.

[@RazorEmporium]

Yes it will hold 2-3 blades in the back. Plenty for a trip.

[@scottburkhardt6859]

New to DE shaving. Can the XL length get in the way anywhere, like around the neck? With a 2XL sized hand, I’m wondering this after the comment that Matt still prefers the standard length.

I went with the Ambassador (the standard stainless steel version). For me, I like the idea of not having to worry about wearing any plating off over time. I love it ! And since I bought it early 2021, I did not feel the need to look around for any other razor. (Safe for vintage ones that I collect, but not use.) And that is saying a lot.

i'm getting my envoy XL tomorrow it better be gooder than my guardenza adjustable merkur futur clone where paint peels off due to hot water... just be warned i'm a lvl 5 local guide at google.

[@pupwizard3888]

My favorite Rex razor is the Envoy. You can buy the XL handle as an add on that goes with the regular size handle. Completely interchangeable. Both handles have that WONDERFUL grip on them. I bought two Envoys and two XL handles to go with. (One regular Envoy razor plus extra handle for each.) I have a Konsul as well but the grip on the Envoy just can not be beat and I discovered the Envoy blade gap is perfect for me, I don't really need the adjustable feature although the Konsul shaves really well. It was the grip on the Envoy handle that had me keep coming back to it.

[@dappershaves]

comfortable grip is very important, regards dapper shaves

[@Life_of_James]

Awesome video Matt! I own all three of your DE razors & love them, though I’ll say my favourite is the Konsul if I want a luxury shave, followed by the Envoy as a daily driver. What I love about all your razors is the excellent build quality and efficiency, there’s nothing worse than an inefficient razor which requires lots of buffing lol, but my Rex will always give me a close shave. I can also vouch for Rex’s/ RE’s outstanding customer service, you guys are extremely helpful. Even though I live in Europe they’ve been able to support me, offer advice and safety ship their wonderful products to me. If you own a Rex you know how great they are, but if you’re new to the wet shaving world then look no further, a Rex razor will be your perfect shaving companion. Also, I don’t think I was aware of your brushes, it would be great to see you use them in your shaving review videos Matt. As for future products I’d love to see a none adjustable Konsul, the Envoy version of the Konsul and maybe even a single edge injector style razor??? And possibly even a Matt black finish, I see quite a few black razors which I think looks quite cool. What ever the future holds I know you’ll bring us some awesome gear 👍🏼. Thank you sincerely for everything 😊👍🏼

I have an early Ambassador with an N4 Date Code that I've been using exclusively since new. I wanted to get another one so I have one always in my travel kit so I bought the Rhodium plated Ambassador with the matching stand. It looks fantastic and I can actually see the red dot clearly on the newer razors. The older ones came with their own "well type" stand that worked pretty well but is not the massive block that the new one is so my old one is perfect for travel. I originally chose Rex because of the heavy knurling on the handle. I got tired of my razors being dented from dropping them. Rex wont't slip or dent and you can dial in the perfect shave.

[@13pie]

Ngl the things being said about CNC machining in this video are inaccurate and ignorant

[@RazorEmporium]

I own the Ambassador and the Konsul. The ambassador is a little too aggressive for me and is usable for me on settings up to 3. The Konsul is usable at all settings and may be my best razor. Kudos to you Matt for a great product.

[@dappershaves]

[@TheDJRiffin]

Excellent showcase! Did the Rex team experiment with putting the blade alignment tabs, on the handle side of the plate? I think the user experience could be improved by maintaining your grip on the handle while placing the blade onto the razor, and then placing the head plate onto the blade.

[@RazorEmporium]

It would increase the product cost. Gillette used the tech style tabs for 40+ years for a good reason. For those who struggle to load, assemble upside down with blade going onto cap first. Thx

[@TheDJRiffin]

[@leehaseley2164]

The Rex razors are, without a shadow of a doubt, some of the classiest and well produced looking razors out there. Unfortunately, there will never be a day when I am in a position to own one. Having said that, with your "no blade-feel" comment, the Konsul would be my choice.

[@wadsworth2351]

So, if i got this right, i should go for the Konsul slant since i have sensitive skin, only shave every 2-3 days and have a coarse and stubborn beard growth. Am i right?

[@JimG7755]

Hey Matt! I purchased a Rex Ambassador last year and love it! Unsurpassed quality in craftsmanship! Maybe an option for the more budget friendly folks would be for these razors to come in a chrome version like Rockwell offers. They have the 6s (stainless steel) and the 6c (chrome). The 6s is obviously way more in price. The 6c offers the same shave experience in a lower cost version. I own both of those versions and actually find the chrome one a bit smoother! Just a thought to ponder for the folks watching their pennies! Thanks as always for your videos!! Can't wait til you try the vintage Trac II and Atra razors!! Have a great week! Jim

How long will the gold plating last on the Merkur 34 g?

[@RazorEmporium]

Plating durability has a direct correlation to wear and tear. If you never use it, it will last forever. The most important thing is to take care of it, clean it periodically with the proper routine and it should last for many many years if not a few decades

I’ve added several high-end razors to my collection over the years and the Envoy remains one of my favorites. It always gives a smooth and efficient shave. I also love the look and feel of the Envoy. There are very few razors out there with this level of precision craftsmanship. Rex is definitely top tier.

I have the utmost respect and appreciation for Matt and what he's been able to accomplish with Rex Supply Co.

I love my Ambassador, but I am not sure about the red dot on the dial. I suppose it is a homage to Gillette Fatboy and Gibbs Adjustable. How about a REX teal dot? Less associated with blood, but close to cold of the stainless steel. I think I am gonna give it a try. At worst case I can get a spare dial. Any advice to remove the red paint, or the kind of paint I should choose for the teal?
