“Superb engineering and a reassuring weight in the hand. Indeed a handsome object. However, after a week of shaving and trying different settings, I’m still cut on every shave. I’ve been wet shaving for nearly 50 years, and this is the most aggressive razor I think I’ve ever used. I think it's time to return to my Henson, which, if results are the measure of success, is a far superior shave.”
Hi Robert, thanks for your review - sorry to hear you haven't quite had the best shave with your Rex Ambassador Adjustable Safety Razor yet. We would recommend using the lowest setting on the razor which should give a very mild shave with little irritation.
“Whilst apprehensive about spending this much on a razor, on delivery any doubts were immediately dispelled. Build quality is excellent, the adjustment is finely tuneable resulting in an enjoyable shave regardless of the time between. In the very unlikely case that it fails then the lifetime warranty is also a bonus.”
“I have bought an endless number of double edged safety razors to find the right one. They are either too aggressive or fail to give a close shave. The Rex Ambassador is the answer.”
