The Rockwell 6S has always been my favorite razor along with the PAA Meta-4. Rockwell would do well to offer a polished version and it wouldn’t hurt them to offer some new handle shapes and sizes and maybe a version that covers the blade tabs however, in its current form it’s perfection already!
Wow that’s stunning & the guy that done it is a pure gentleman, even although his football taste is dire. Kevy your 2 tucks of blades are from Brazil & the wilkos are pretty hard to beat.
When the razor is polished, the space/distance between the cap and baseplate has to increase because every form of polishing removes material. I would never polish my 6S because of this.
Hola Kevy como has estado?) The chrome finish definitely gives the design an exceptional appearance to my eyes it looks more attractive, congratulations mate, enjoy it, it's a great piece!!!!
that was the deal breaker for me! i really wanted the 6S but i needed to see that chrome razor hanging by the faucet! so opted for the 6C but wow she looks beautiful, im jealous lol
I prefer the look of the matte/brushed finish, but I wonder if the polished might shave better. Just glide marginally better on the skin. Both lovely looking razors mind.
Hi Kevy, awesome looking razor that 6S! I wonder if those blades are of vintage origin? I haven't seen modern Gillette blades with that type of boxing/package design, but who knows for sure, eh? Is there a NYC meet-up video coming?
Wow, that looks amazing. Hard to believe it is the same material as the other one. Definitely an option Rockwell should offer in my opinion. But not sure if they could match the finish and the expertise of the person who polished your 6S Kevy.
I think they might have used a barrelling process to achieve that shine and especially in the lather holes. Barrelling involves using ceramic micro chips of various sizes that are put into a vibrating barrel along with water and a special detergent. I use this process in my job, the finer the ceramic stones and the longer you leave it to vibrate the shinier the finish. You can achieve a jewellery finish.
Surely it becomes the 6 Ski if it's Polish. A tartan version is easy, just dip it in a tin of tartan paint, apprentices all over the UK will understand that.
"6S" you present at the three-minute mark? A bit too bright and shiny for the "S". I would think that your mystery technical servicer electroplated some other special metal or metals onto the razor parts. You did not specifically say this, so I am very curious.

Nice unboxing Kevy! The 6s looks great! 🤩👌 Really good job whoever did that for you! 😎👍
Have a good one!
Steve
Thanks Steve 👍
Beautiful... Ken Surfs said to watch this.
Wow that’s stunning & the guy that done it is a pure gentleman, even although his football taste is dire. Kevy your 2 tucks of blades are from Brazil & the wilkos are pretty hard to beat.
Cheers Mike. That Wilko blade felt lovely in the razor. Kevy 👍
Outstanding polish👍👍👍👍
Oh! That is fantastic! Great looking razor. Looking forward to seeing how it shaves. Cheers
The 6S becomes 6C.
😂😂😂
Beautiful!!!!! But the most important thing is the joy it gave you.
When the razor is polished, the space/distance between the cap and baseplate has to increase because every form of polishing removes material.
I would never polish my 6S because of this.
Wow!!! What a fantastic job on the 6S!!!! Looks incredible Kevy
Cheers mate. I hope you're well buddy 🙂👍
Outstanding result, could see by your reaction how pleased you were.
Excellent! Now it looks just like a 6C! I’ll bet it performs exactly like a 6C as well!
Amazing work. Looks great. I’d take a polished solid surface over replate any day if it looks similar.
I definitely prefer the matt original.
Although he did undoubtedly a great polishing job.
Thanks for showing and comparing, Kevy.
Regards, Patrick
Thanks Patrick 🙂👍
That razor looks amazing and is how they should put it out. Very nice.
Wow! The difference is clear. Please share the contact so we can arrange for the polishing of Rockwell S6🙏🏾
Nice work. The only UK based vendor I know of that provides a 6S polishing service for a fee is J June. He has a youtube channel.
It wasn't John that polished my razor. He does make a nice job of them too. Kevy 🙂

Wow. What a great finish. That really is a success! Fantastic. Tarten 😂
That's Awesome !!!
OMG that’s not a 6S
I’m sitting here drooling
That is some serious polishing job
He has to be tracked down and made do mine lol 😊
Absolutely stunning
that was the deal breaker for me! i really wanted the 6S but i needed to see that chrome razor hanging by the faucet! so opted for the 6C but wow she looks beautiful, im jealous lol

Hey Todd. The blades were made in China for the Brazilian shaving market. I think they've been discontinued now. Kevy 🙂
Tons of elbow grease and a big bottle of jiff👍👍
Is it naw ciff now? 😂
@@BigJoeShaves
Only if your a certain age, lm not jiff forever to me😄
Looks great - we can do that for anyone interested :)
Excellent work! It's hard to believe they're the same material.
Loses charm looks like 6C razor 😮… Just my opinion
Beautiful I believe it will glide better on your face with that finish than with that stainless finish
My 6c is one of my favorite razors….best $50 spent!
Wow, that looks amazing. Hard to believe it is the same material as the other one. Definitely an option Rockwell should offer in my opinion. But not sure if they could match the finish and the expertise of the person who polished your 6S Kevy.
I have a huge 8 pound package coming on Friday haha can't wait
Wow!!! Great work! The Wilkinson Sword blades are Brazilian I think, they are in Portuguese. Have some here in the den, good blades. :)
Absolutely amazing! It gives the stainless an entirely different character. I hope he decides to reveal himself.

That razor looks very impressive. I love my 6S but am interested to know if the polished version enhances the shave at all.
Wow! That polished 6S looks fantastic. You'll have to confirm that the blade alignments haven't changed. And how the polished 6S shaves.
Very impressive really good job
I never seen those blades before! Love the logo though!
Edit: I looked online and I could not find them
Brazilian blades 👍
Accepting that the stainless steel can be polished to a bright shiny very smooth appearance, we must wonder if the shaving will feel any different.
amazing
They did a terrific job polishing. Rockwell 6S still the G.O.A.T.
WOW beautiful
I know it's a matter of taste...
But I personally like this razor much better in the original matte finish
You are absolutely right. It's a matter of taste. For me, the matte finish looks like an unfinished/dirty product
Surely it becomes the 6 Ski if it's Polish. A tartan version is easy, just dip it in a tin of tartan paint, apprentices all over the UK will understand that.
😂😂
I have some news: he just sent you back a 6C (chrome )
😂
Are you sure that was for you? Shouldn't have come to me 🤪🤣🤣...
Nice Unboxing Kevy!😅
😂😂
@@kevyshaves4109 👍😊😉
I belive is a coating of some sort ...
Wow so shiny 🤯

Nothing was electroplated it’s all hand polished.
Don’t worry, I’m a razor hoarder also
Nice! 👍👍
Love u kevy
Fail sleep
First.
Buy Russian👀
Just beautiful!
