Top 5 Non Adjustable | New Production Razors

[@johnmcpherson5622]

The Henson is a fantastic razor!

[@Heiko-shaves]

I agree

[@bernardgrabowski1645]

Thank you for this very interesting video. When I was beginning with the safety razors, my first razor was the King C Gillette. After them i get the Mühle R 89 and now muy dayli razor is the R41. Ok, i wish you a nive weekend and a happy new year. Greatings from Bernd

[@Heiko-shaves]

Thank you, you too.

[@SenorRossi70]

All of these razors are very recommandable - nice choice ! 👍

[@BRI-b9k]

Really like your interview style. Great insight into each razor.

[@Heiko-shaves]

Much appreciated!

[@10floz30minutes]

"Interchangeable Aggression Levels" is a way to give a label for the Rockwell 6S, 6C, and 2C.

[@Shaverboy516]

Loved the video Heiko, I would add the RazoRock gamechanger .84 very smooth shaver. I love Merkur razors too.

[@metalsoso5460]

Sweet list. I've got the Parker 55SL Slant, it's similar. I'm still trying blades in it.

[@georgewashington3012]

Good vid! The King C Gillette is smoother than the Merkur 34C in my opinion and the Rockwell 6S beats them both by quite a bit. I own all three. I’m surprised the Rex Konsul didn’t make your list. Welcome back 🇺🇸

[@HeikosGarage]

the Konsul didn't fit into the list because it is adjustable on the fly. But if I make a Top 5 adjustable razor list it might make it into that one.

[@georgewashington3012]

@@HeikosGarage Ah, I overlooked your video title.

[@gregsullivan7408]

Just got the Rockwell 6C. Love it! I shave twice a day, and setting 2 is so mild that I can simply use water as my only lubricant, despite the fact I always shave ATG. My second shave is usually in my car, and being able to use just water makes for a very simple, mess free experience 🕺 (re setting 1 - just too mild IMHO - waste of a grade)

[@Heiko-shaves]

It is too mild on 1. Enjoy your razor.

[@samoram6920]

Merry Christmas to you too Heiko 🎅😊 You are one of the main reasons I am getting a Leaf Twig for Christmas this year 👍 I also agree about the Rockwell 6S, I always refer to it as a "modular razor" rather than an adjustable. I'd love to see your top 5 adjustable razors video at some point.

[@Heiko-shaves]

Thanks for your encouragement

[@MoltenHelium]

Love the Henson. Really good shave, and I like the modern look to it.

[@voodoo7008]

Just starting back with safety razors after many years. I will be trying different combos. A couple of these are already on my radar.

[@Heiko-shaves]

Go for it!

[@Glatt-Rasiert]

Hallo Heiko, sehr geiles Video! Ich habe mich bisher immer um ein 'Top 5 Non Adjustable' Video gedrückt, sondern zunächst ein 'Top 5 Adjustable' Video veröffentlicht (#5 Pearl Flexi, #4 Gillette Fatboy, #3 Merkur Progress, #2 Rex Ambassador, #1 Rockwell 6S). Der Leaf Twig und 34C wären wohl auch in einem 'Top 5 Three Pieces' Razor Video von mir dabei, dazu aber wohl noch der RazoRock Gamechanger 0.68, Timor CC und Gillette Tech. Werde noch mal auf den Platzierungen herumdenken und demnächst wohl auch mal mit einem ähnlichen Video an den Start gehen. Vielen Dank für deine Mühe! Herzliche Grüße Jörg

[@melteds3008]

Great video Heiko.

[@Heiko-shaves]

Thanks!

[@garryclarke7695]

Very nice, comprehensive review.

[@Heiko-shaves]

Thank you kindly!

[@williammurphy1756]

Great video. Love your descriptions and would love to see more videos like this. Have a great week and your Konsul is on it's way. 👍🎅

[@Heiko-shaves]

Thanks, you too!

[@alspencer2794]

I’m enjoying my Razorock Game Changer with the .76 head. Good video

[@Heiko-shaves]

I will have to get myself one of those game changers. Is it a gamer though?

[@mrtdiver]

I've got the same thing coming in the mail. I think I will like it. It's in between their 0.84-P & 0.68-P size. If your looking at them also consider the Lupo or SLOC. I hear good things about them.

[@alspencer2794]

@@mrtdiverI also have the Mamba 70. I Like it also. It pairs well with many blades.

[@djchubbsShaving]

Very informative video the only one I don’t have is the slant !!!! Merry Christmas to you!!!!!!

[@Heiko-shaves]

Thank you, Merry Christmas.

[@The_One_BABA]

You did a great job on this vid💪🏼

[@Heiko-shaves]

Thank you!!

[@petekadenz9465]

My favourite is the Design 94 aluminium razor. It’s replaced the Rockwell 6C (6 plate) as my daily driver. I have the Thorn and the Twig, but use the former. Love them both.

[@Heiko-shaves]

Design 94? I think I will have to check them out. Thanks

[@apurbamazumdar968]

Nice list. Please make a video on your top five adjustable razors.

[@Heiko-shaves]

Will do!

[@robertlarkham2428]

I love my Henson and love the space age style. I also own a 6C and a twig with Henson being my favorite. I love old horse and buggies but prefer a new car. 😃😃

[@petekadenz9465]

I like the Henson, but it’s a bit draggy, in my experience. Great video, btw.

[@davereed6363]

Hi Heiko Enjoy your presentations but feel you are creating a false impression about the maintenance requirements of the Leaf Twig. I have had my Twig for about three years and haven’t felt the need to disassemble it for cleaning. Like yours, my Twig “squeaked” a little at first but lubrication with a little bit of mineral oil once in awhile is all that was needed. Thanks

[@Heiko-shaves]

Good point. Maybe I am too worried about it.

[@mikeperritte]

The Leaf Twig/Thorn are great razors for sure. You should try and get the new Yates Winning Razor as it's mild but very efficient, it became my favorite after using it once.

[@Heiko-shaves]

I will look into that.

[@TjerkMuller]

I prefer to call the Rockwell 6S & 6C/2C a 'customizable' razor. I'm currently using a 6C and it's my favorite razor. Although I have to say the chrome finish didn't hold up well. Perhaps that's a quality control issue. It's odd to me you would rate the Merkur 34C as milder than the Edwin Jagger-type heads. In my experience its the other way around. Only thing I don't like about the EJ-head is the acute corners. The King C Gillette was a present surprise. You can't go wrong for the price, and it offers a smooth efficient shave, somewhere between the Edwin Jagger and the Merkur.

[@Heiko-shaves]

It is interesting how this whole shaving business is so very subjective. I experience less blade feel with the M34C than with the EJ or the Mühle R89. I just had a conversation about the twig and the Thorn, some people have problems with those, I find them an absolute pleasure to shave with.

[@garys_shave]

Nice selection, cheers Heiko.🪒

[@GarySlegg]

I was surprised you didn't mention the Edwin Jagger 3one6 - a superb razor

[@Heiko-shaves]

I can only speak of the razor I have shaved with. It was really my Top 5, not the Top 5.

[@sorinflorintalpa]

Hi Heiko, Nice video! In my opinion, we can include as honorable mention even the Wilkinson Sword The Edge (classic with butterfly open doors) that is almost the same price as King C. Gillette razor but for the ones that likes more the mecanism of this.

[@Heiko-shaves]

Great point! I agree, the Wilkinson Sword is a good, inexpensive choice too.

[@ijaapajuk]

My Top 5 Non adjustable MILD razors are: The Goodfellas Smile, Styletto - Italian, aluminium. Carbon Shaving, CX-316L - USA, Stainless Steel. Karve Shaving, The Christopher Bradley - Canadian, Stainless Steel. Stando Polska, Morana - Polish, Stainless Steel. Tatara, Masamune - Portuguese, Titanium.

[@Heiko-shaves]

Nice collection

[@davidkuinov]

Please try yaqi ghost (stainless steel) razor head (0.70mm gap), you'd be pleasantly surprised - mild yet effective and no skin irritation. (Based on my use with dorco red blades but i'm sure it's fine with more "agressive" blades)

[@Heiko-shaves]

Thanks for the recommendation.

[@sellitman]

Splurge and buy yourself a Henson Ti-22 Titanium. It's my favorite razor for head shaving and is just as good for face shaving. It's a bit more aggressive than my AL-13. I have mild in both. The knurling is better too.

[@Heiko-shaves]

I have it on the list of things I want to try.

[@MisterRz]

Is the Henson AL model aggressive enough for a daily shave or should you get the M model?

[@Heiko-shaves]

That depends on your preference and probably your skin type. I can shave with it daily and get a smooth result after 3 passes. I have not shaved with the medium. I hope that helps.

[@RichardE62]

6S is the bomb.

[@RichardE62]

Pearl Flexi open comb is not for me either.

[@RichardE62]

My new T2SS is quite the bomb too.

[@RichardE62]

6C to me is smoother than the 6S. 6C made in China. They are checked out in Canada.

[@logantang]

I love my Rockwell 6C and 2C. I am very happy with my shaves and I thoroughly enjoy the experience and look forward to shaving. Very satisfied customer!

[@RichardE62]

@@logantang my 6C is awesome.

[@bernardgrabowski1645]

The King C Gillette was my first razor too. After I by the R 89 and my last was the R41. Last days I got the Knight Helmet and now I’m searching for the right blade for that one. I hope to find it. Do you know anyone?

[@Heiko-shaves]

My go to blade is the Wilkinson Sword. Give it a try

[@spartan9212]

I highly recommend not buying not buying the Rockwell 6c/2c. Due to poor build quality my 6c had an issue with the thread on the top plate and I had to be very careful when screwing the handle on. It eventually stripped the thread rendering it useless.

[@Heiko-shaves]

Thanks for sharing

[@razormichl2004]

great video👌have a nice day

[@Heiko-shaves]

Thank you! You too!

[@bernardgrabowski1645]

Thank you for this great Video. I like how you explain the things. We can compare your videos with the canal from Jörg, the german channel Glatt rasiert… thank you for made this channel. Greetings from Canary Island, from Tenerife. Your Bernd

[@andrewwilson9617]

The 6s is an interchangeable razor. I use plate 4 and flip to plate 2 for clean ups.

[@drytool]

I'm a big AC and Schick fan, so my list is different..

[@madeupname18]

Damn no Muhle or Edwin Jagger 89 razors

[@Heiko-shaves]

Too many similar razors. If I would have done a top 10 I would have had the EJ DE89 in there.

[@SenorRossi70]

And no Giesen & Forsthoff Timor razor...😉

[@Heiko-shaves]

@@SenorRossi70 don't own one yet. That is the problem with this hobby, to many choices and products. I would love to review all of them but fiscally that is not possible.

[@mohammedal8805]

I wish that German manufacturing standards becomes the global standard, sadly i know it’s not feasible financially.

[@toddd7444]

$40 CHEAP Muhle r89 safety razor WITH Muhle r89 HEAD ONLY WITH IKON HANDLE better shaves wheelchair Larry

[@Neil-from-Oz]

Cheapest price i can get for a Rockwell 2C in Australia is $70+. Postage to Australia is a killer. Europe postage is cheaper but US postage way beyond my Pocket. If Amazon Au Prime offers something postage free then product is a bit cheaper for US goods but nothing like the prices I hear quoted on USA You-Tube Shavers even taking into account the $ value differences .

[@Heiko-shaves]

That is tough. I think there is a market for razor production in Australia to make it more accessible. Maybe you know someone with a CNC machine.
