I got a Rockwell Model T for Christmas and it was a lemon. The blade wouldn’t stay squarely in the head, and would shift during the shave. It cut me a few times and finally I had enough. I contacted them and their customer service wasn’t great. I won’t be buying another Rockwell product. I contacted the store, Murphy and McNeil, and they were great. Amazing customer service. They are taking back the Rockwell, and giving me full credit towards a Rex Ambassador. I cannot wait.
I watched the Rex video on their razors. It really sounds like the Rex razors are high quality: I realize it is pricey so would like to explore more in depth. So glad to see you trying one of their razors.
My thoughts and prayers to the people of the greater Cincinnati area... Today marks the 42nd Anniversary of the WKRP Pinedale shopping mall Turkey incident... We will never forget! :) Happy Turkey Day Ken!
Awesome 🪒. I found out a coworker has this shaver and absolutely loves it. He stated if he had to choose 1 razor for the rest of his life it would be the Rex Ambassador. You reviewed this at the perfect time . If you use discount code black2020friday you save 30% off which takes off $74.70. Great time to pick this up. Don’t cheat yourself, treat yourself. We all deserve this top tier experience. Now I just need to convince the wife so she doesn’t plot against me. Lol. Ken, thanks for being a blessing to the wet shaving community.
Been DE shaving for a couple years pe and I just want to mention that I just had my first ever DE shave without a single cut! Gonna go have myself a day now
Mark! Welcome to the light! Take in as much advice as you can. When you get the odd nick or rough shave, don't loose heart. It will get much better quickly!
Stay safe and stay healthy, Covid19 is no joke at all, my wife works as a nurse in the University Hospital here in Hamburg and she has daily cases of people suffering from it. Some mild but very often severe illness. Dont know what makes people think it's a hoax! People dieing all over the world, daily. And with preconditions like we got, I'm better careful than sorry. Great shave by the way as always. 🪒💈
Ken, I’m convinced you are the nicest person in the whole world. Thank you for these videos and thank you for being such a great person. The world needs more of you! 😊
I actually own a Rex Ambassador and I bought it brand new from Razor Emporium for only $174.30 around this time last year! It was one of those Black Friday specials if you used the discount on their website. I originally didn't want to pay that much for a safety razor, but I like American made stuff that's built to last until after I'm gone. I cracked up when you mentioned that you're not dating anybody anymore. Fantastic shave video as usual!
Nice shave. I like the Rex, but I have three vintage Gillette adjustable razors. Much joy to you and your family. Covid is not a hoax, my granddaughter had it. I was a deputy sheriff for 33 years, my daughter is a Nurse, my son-in-law a fire/medic. The big fear years ago was Hepatitis working around prisoners, arrestees and homeless. There are always health risks and not taking them seriously is just foolish. Blessings and good health to all.
My son and I tested negative yesterday but my wife and daughter tested positive with cold like symptoms, no fevers. My son an I moved onto a hotel down the street to be safe.🙏🙏
I am thankful I have found your channel, It has given me inspiration to get into wet shaving. I have thick hair and super sensitive skin... and my neck hair grain goes towards the back of my neck parting along the front... AKA the nightmare shave. I have basically had to choose between full beard or ingrown hairs. I tried every cartridge and electric razor nothing worked. Thanks to you and a couple of other youtubers I decided to try to wet shave. I literally just started this week so fingers crossed. Thanks for letting us in on your shaves and rants. Stay safe, be healthy, and don't smother your family with a pillow (I know it can be hard some times)
I plan to get this razor when I graduate as a mechanical engineer next year. A big treat yourself gift to myself. Wish I was early enough to be able to be apart of this giveaway but such an amazing video!
Nicely done Ken💈💈 Good idea with the Ambassador to start low and adjust up as needed. Being that it is "infinitely" adjustable, you can go anywhere on the dial to find the exact feel you want. Blade choice with this razor is also important, a little experimentation will pay off. If you give this one away, I almost bet you buy one to keep. Heirloom quality for sure as is the Envoy three piece also from REX. I'm not affiliated with, nor compensated by REX. It's the only stainless steel, machined, made entirely in the USA, infinitely adjustable razor. That speaks for itself. Yep, $250 and worth it. Great video as always. Enjoy!
How many of us in the wet shaving community could say that we bought one razor and stuck with it for the rest of our life lol? We started with a Merkur, and then made it two, then got a Muhle, but that vintage fatboy looked so good, and who could say no to the open comb? The fatips are all brass, and the schick krona is a classic. The Rex looks nice, and here we are, 50 razors in our den and counting. 😊
Happy Thanksgiving all...Began my DE Wet shave journey this year (in my late 40s)...Ken Thank you for your anecdotal mentorship... pivotal in my learning!!! Keep up the great work my friend...Priceless Americanisms, humor and wisdom.
Hi Ken- Great shave and razor review; thank you! The Rex Ambassador is definitely a nice razor. Glad you had a great Thanksgiving. Enjoy the rest of the weekend. Take good care and best regards, as always!
This year (2020) really drives home what is sacred in our lives. I agree, it’s best to stay safe! My wife has Lupus and I don’t want her catching “the rona.” Thanks Ken for the holiday shave, Ken. Great looking Razor!
Hey Ken! I'm so glad I came across your channel. My first introduction with DE shaving was a couple of years ago but thanks to your videos I decided to do it more often and I have to say, I haven't gone back ever since. Thanks for the great content, we all appreciate it. Keep 'em coming!
It would be interesting to compare the Rex Ambassador to the Yaqi Ultima stainless steel razor since they are both inspired by the Gibbs razor and one is half the price of the other
I ordered myself a Rex Ambassador adjustable last week, can't wait for it to arrive 😀. Great video Ken and hope you and everyone watching had a great thanksgiving.
Of all of the other great reviewers this by far is my favorite background! Just love it! Some bathrooms are so boring, but this has a little hint of a barber shop or one of those man’s workshop I’ve been in my childhood!
I do have a Gibbs 17 Adjustable, and it shaves marvelously, and I was super lucky to get it at a bargain. But you're right, it's extremely hard to find them at a low price.
@@kensurfs Ken, I watched a video of an Italian doctor whistle blower who said that most people that catch Covid are those who have been vaccinated before. Vaccines do not cure you, what they do is actually weaken your immune system! There is a huge conspiracy behind this, and this Covid virus is about control of the masses. Heard of the mark of the beast from the Bible? Yep, those who do not have it won't be able to buy or sell, and guess what? The Covid vaccine that is coming will be made mandatory at some point, and this will be the most evil of all vaccines. It is a death trap! The key to good health is building up your immune system naturally, and staying away from vaccines and medications. Guess who is behind all of this? Rome! The Vatican is behind it! If you don't believe me, at least watch the videos of Dr. Deisher, who testified at the Minnesota House Committee Hearing in 2012 about the link between autism and vaccines. There are a host of things in vaccines that are damaging to us, including aborted human fetal cells, and even viruses! This is part 1 of 4... ua-cam.com/video/ZsCAUKUTb20/v-deo.html
@@nathanieldaiken1064 Very soon everyone will know that it is not just some conspiracy theory. Who would have thought at this time last year that we would be in this Covid Plandemic mess? Open your mind!

Great shave. I don’t have any razors I would use for pretty much forever. I’m eyeing on higher-end ones like the Rockwell 6S or Rex Ambassador, and when I get rich and buy one of them, I’ll see if one becomes the only razor to use for the rest of my life. The Stirling Lemon Chill is what I’m also targeting for when I buy Stirling soaps in the near future
Great video Ken. The brush is beautiful! Going to move from our current flat to a small house in a couple of weeks. Can't wait to shave in the new bathroom
I shave with a Merkur 38c Razor as my Daily Driver. That cost me $28 on Amazon. The Rex Ambassador online at Razor Emporium is priced at $249... That's pricey on my budget, but that razor shaved well and I actually like it... Hopefully I can afford it one day..
38c was my very first DE razor. Shaved with it yesterday in fact. For me the REX shaves much nicer, but I still enjoy the 38c in my rotation. Buy it now while it's $74 off, you won't regret it.
Interesting to see that they changed the packaging. I got mine from a company in Scotland and the box was nowhere near that big. Still a fantastic razor though.
The boxing has been improved a bit. Mine from about a year ago has no foam insert, just the cardboard holding it. A bit disappointing packaging, but working in manufacturing I understand trying to keep the cost of goods sold down.
Happy Holidays Mr.Kensurfs!! I vote for your to keep the beard, it looks great on you. I myself have Muttonchops and a Mustache for Movember. Happy Holidays to you and yours!!
Cannot go wrong with Sterling soap, priced well, performs well, the. Rex looks a cool razor, a bit on the pricey side, but quality costs, and about your lather, like the saying goes, if its not broken don't fix it, what works for you is all that you need, all the best mate. 🇬🇧
Happy Thanksgiving Ken. Your genuine reviews are fun to watch. Good that you don't rehearse and never do that. Let it remain a channel for viewers and not for product advertisement. 👍👍👍👍
First 'real' wetshave razor I have was the Merkur 43, then the Supply Co. (rolled edges on a couple blades while loading and couldn't figured out the angle for the life of me) and eventually the OneBlade Hybrid (love the design and feel but not the required Feathers) and was looking at the Futur. Well, looking at this as my last (heheh) one.
Great video Ken, gotta ride the cap when going against the grain with that beast. Voskhod is my blade of choice for my Rex Ambassador. All the best pal.
I truly love my Rex Ambassador, best razor I ever bought! My Ambassador was also inspected by DJ. I get very smooth shaves with my Ambassador, but it does make you insure you keep your face moist and slick with lather. Its 3.7 ounces of 316L stainless steel, that is sexy as hell. Thanksgiving can be a crazy time for families. I like all your movie knowledge BTW.
Nice shave Ken and Happy Thanksgiving. I've owned the Rex for over a year now and its up there with my favourite razors. The grip on its handle is insane, theres no way in hell that you could have it slip through the fingers. You can certainly feel the precision and the extremely high build quality when shaving with it, as there's not a hint of any blade chatter. Stay safe to you and your family.
Do you ever come across the Baron cologne: still available at some mall center isle stands; it’s a smell that will stay with you all day and not vanish 10 minutes after you put it on.
the first adjustable i try was the Rockwell 6c gun barrel color with his head with different level of aggresivity but i figer out much quickly i dont use all but only 5-6 so i stop to use and now i buy a Gilette Adjustable slim and i hope to have a good razor for all type of grown bear
That's a beautiful shirt Mr. Ken. Hope you and your family stay safe. I am into collecting soaps and creams and not razors and brushes. I recently got a shaving brush from Trigodon, hand made, a real treat to my facial skin.
You need to keep the Rex Ambassador long enough to shave after you lose the goatee. My challenge with the Rex was shaving my upper lip and chin areas. After a few shaves, I learned how to get a decent shave by riding the cap. While the face and neck areas are comfortable at setting 2 or 3, I dial it down to setting 1 when shaving around my mouth. It would be interesting to get your take on shaving your entire face with the Rex. I find that razor to be a bit more aggressive than my other adjustable razors. But it is a beautiful and quality made razor for sure.
I really enjoy your content and love to listen to your ramblings. 😆 You also got me into wet shaving earlier this year. Now I'm really looking forward to each shave. Before that, shaving to me was just a job that had to be done. But now I can't wait to grab my Muhle Rocca again. :) THANK YOU for that, Ken! :)
That is one hell of a razor to give away Ken. It looks beautifully made and of course quality costs money. Compared to buying cartridges I guess it adds up but only if it is your only razor which is none of us 😂😂😂
Love my Rex A. ❤️🥰 I’ve had my Rex A for 7 months and it’s truly an heirloom razor. BTW- no need to loosen the top cap knob before you adjust the gap setting. Have a great Black Friday Ken and Co. 🙏🏼
Always wanted to get the Ambassador, to me is just one of the most beautiful looking razors but damn too expensive. Let's see if this Christmas I can get it as a self-gift!
Great shave, Happy Thanksgiving! Looks like an interesting razor, I’ve been thinking about getting a higher end razor for some time now, I’ll have to look at the Rex a little more now. Thanks for supporting the Movember movement!
I have a rex ambassador but I'm sorry to say I've always struggled to get a good shave with it without irritation. I've tried many different blades and soaps but I always get the same result after-irritation. Especially on my neck. On the other hand my rockwell 6s seems to shave perfectly regardless of the blade I have in it. Its rather disappointing but it is what it is! I think I'm going to sell it in the near future. Hopefully someone else has better luck than me.
Great shave and review of the Rex Ambassador Ken! Happy Belated Thanksgiving to you and your family. Always looking forward to your next video! Thanks and Best Wishes .Joe.
Thanks for the review Ken. I brought myself the envoy about a year ago and although its a marvelous piece of engineering wish I'd purchased the ambassador just to enable me to easy off in the aggression slightly. I find the envoy just a tad too much for me probably similar to a 3 on the ambassador or a c plate on the karve. I'll have go at your give away when it comes!
Happy belated Thanksgiving Ken! I think you summed it up in the top notch quality of the razor which far exceeds the Pearl. Aggressive razor for sure, but it works perfectly for me at 1.5 and below. If I had to give away all my razors except one, this is the one I would keep. That's says it all for me. Good laugh as well today too! "They're out there plotting against me." I know what you mean brother! :-) Enjoy the day and stay safe!
Speaking of Adjustable razors Ken I'm a straight guy and use the leaf for my head but every now and then I like to go with a DE and my only DE is the MicroTouch one I think... The one with the Pawnstars guy on it. and it TEARS my neck up I bleed every time. What would you say is a good adjustable to try. I can DE my whole head and face and it's fine but my neck bleeds every time and I want to make it work.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family, Ken. Great video as usual. I did pick up a Rex Ambassador for the exact reason you mentioned. It’s the last razor I’ve purchased. And at some point something I can maybe hand down to one of my boys if they decide to get into traditional wet shaving as well.
Happy Thanksgiving Ken! No worries about telling everyone to stay safe. I understand you mean stay safe from Covid specifically but I always figure you mean stay safe in general as well.
I got a Rockwell Model T for Christmas and it was a lemon. The blade wouldn’t stay squarely in the head, and would shift during the shave. It cut me a few times and finally I had enough. I contacted them and their customer service wasn’t great. I won’t be buying another Rockwell product.
I contacted the store, Murphy and McNeil, and they were great. Amazing customer service. They are taking back the Rockwell, and giving me full credit towards a Rex Ambassador. I cannot wait.

2020: This is not the year to get everything we want, but the year to be thankful for what we have. Thanksgiving blessings and many great shaves.

Ordered my first de razor today. An Edwin Jagger DE89. Cant wait to get it and try it out. Thank you for your videos.
Welcome Mark👍👍💈💈💈💈
My first real razor was the DE89, it's a great starter razor, you won't be let down.
My favorite blade in that razor is the Gillette 7 o'clock black.

That's a beautiful shirt Mr. Ken. Hope you and your family stay safe. I am into collecting soaps and creams and not razors and brushes. I recently got a shaving brush from Trigodon, hand made, a real treat to my facial skin.
👍👍👍👍👍👍
Excellent shave, Ken! Thanks for sharing! Stay safe and enjoy your day!

You need to keep the Rex Ambassador long enough to shave after you lose the goatee. My challenge with the Rex was shaving my upper lip and chin areas. After a few shaves, I learned how to get a decent shave by riding the cap. While the face and neck areas are comfortable at setting 2 or 3, I dial it down to setting 1 when shaving around my mouth. It would be interesting to get your take on shaving your entire face with the Rex. I find that razor to be a bit more aggressive than my other adjustable razors. But it is a beautiful and quality made razor for sure.

Happy Thanksgiving to you & your family Ken! It's been great to watch your videos and just listening to your talks, stories & journey! God bless!
Thank you. Happy Thanksgiving 🦃🦃
FEATHER AS D2!!!! waiting for it
Happy Thanksgiving to you too I really enjoy your UA-cam videos keep up the hard work that you always do your fan to me

Love the handle on that brush

Happy Thanksgiving! Enjoy your videos

I really enjoy your content and love to listen to your ramblings. 😆 You also got me into wet shaving earlier this year. Now I'm really looking forward to each shave. Before that, shaving to me was just a job that had to be done. But now I can't wait to grab my Muhle Rocca again. :) THANK YOU for that, Ken! :)
Thank you
That is one hell of a razor to give away Ken. It looks beautifully made and of course quality costs money. Compared to buying cartridges I guess it adds up but only if it is your only razor which is none of us 😂😂😂

Happy Thanksgiving my mom made me a BIG meal I'm full

Yes, no rehearsal! First impression is always the strongest!
I really enjoy your shaving videos
Thank you👍💈
Excellent video Ken! You have a great weekend!
Thank you 👍💈
Love my Rex A. ❤️🥰
I’ve had my Rex A for 7 months and it’s truly an heirloom razor.
BTW- no need to loosen the top cap knob before you adjust the gap setting.
Have a great Black Friday Ken and Co. 🙏🏼
👍👍👍
Always wanted to get the Ambassador, to me is just one of the most beautiful looking razors but damn too expensive. Let's see if this Christmas I can get it as a self-gift!

Happy Thanks Giving Ken !!!

Nice shave. That Rex razor is on my short list of special treat items. Happy Thanksgiving Ken.
👍💈
Great shave, Happy Thanksgiving! Looks like an interesting razor, I’ve been thinking about getting a higher end razor for some time now, I’ll have to look at the Rex a little more now. Thanks for supporting the Movember movement!

I like the idea of an adjustable safety razor 🪒 I could go for one of these ⭐️

I have a rex ambassador but I'm sorry to say I've always struggled to get a good shave with it without irritation. I've tried many different blades and soaps but I always get the same result after-irritation. Especially on my neck.
On the other hand my rockwell 6s seems to shave perfectly regardless of the blade I have in it. Its rather disappointing but it is what it is! I think I'm going to sell it in the near future. Hopefully someone else has better luck than me.
Try riding cap more?
@@mattpisarcik5865 ride the cap? Do you mean try using it at a shallower angle? I'm confused sorry🤔.

Happy Thanksgiving Mr Surfs
Thank you 🦃🦃
Thanks for the review Ken. I brought myself the envoy about a year ago and although its a marvelous piece of engineering wish I'd purchased the ambassador just to enable me to easy off in the aggression slightly. I find the envoy just a tad too much for me probably similar to a 3 on the ambassador or a c plate on the karve. I'll have go at your give away when it comes!
👍👍👍
Thankful to have found your channel this year and kept me occupied during the pandemic. Thank you Ken and hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving!

Happy belated Thanksgiving Ken! I think you summed it up in the top notch quality of the razor which far exceeds the Pearl. Aggressive razor for sure, but it works perfectly for me at 1.5 and below. If I had to give away all my razors except one, this is the one I would keep. That's says it all for me. Good laugh as well today too! "They're out there plotting against me." I know what you mean brother! :-) Enjoy the day and stay safe!
Thank you
Speaking of Adjustable razors Ken I'm a straight guy and use the leaf for my head but every now and then I like to go with a DE and my only DE is the MicroTouch one I think... The one with the Pawnstars guy on it. and it TEARS my neck up I bleed every time. What would you say is a good adjustable to try. I can DE my whole head and face and it's fine but my neck bleeds every time and I want to make it work.
viking emperor adjustable nice and smooth
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family, Ken. Great video as usual. I did pick up a Rex Ambassador for the exact reason you mentioned. It’s the last razor I’ve purchased. And at some point something I can maybe hand down to one of my boys if they decide to get into traditional wet shaving as well.
Happy Thanksgiving 🦃🦃
Happy Thanksgiving Ken! No worries about telling everyone to stay safe. I understand you mean stay safe from Covid specifically but I always figure you mean stay safe in general as well.
Absolutely 👍👍
Belated Happy Thanksgiving, good sir! Another good shave. That Rex razor is a beauty. Enjoy your weekend, and stay safe.
