Rockwell 6C Safety Razor - Gun Metal
The Rockwell 6C commands respect on any operative's rack. Forged from premium chromed zinc alloy and finished in striking gunmetal, this six-setting platform delivers the flexibility of the flagship 6S in a lighter, more accessible package. Three interchangeable baseplates—each reversible—yield six distinct blade gap configurations. This is professional-grade equipment designed for operatives who demand customisation and proven durability.

Operational Protocols
The 6C employs the proven interchangeable baseplate system. Unscrew the handle to access the blade chamber. Select your active baseplate—each plate reverses for an additional setting—secure your blade, and re-engage the handle. The knurled grip ensures stable control during deployment. Lower settings (R1–R2) address sensitive assignments; mid-range (R3–R4) handles routine work; upper settings (R5–R6) deploy aggressive blade exposure for coarse or demanding conditions. After each operation, rinse thoroughly under warm water and air dry completely. Chrome plating resists corrosion; no conditioning required.
The Brand: Rockwell Razors
Rockwell Razors, the Canadian manufacturer founded in 2014, specialises in precision-engineered safety razors. The 6C shares the innovative interchangeable baseplate architecture of its stainless counterpart, bringing professional versatility to operatives seeking excellent value. Each razor undergoes rigorous quality assurance to maintain the blade gap and exposure tolerances that define the Rockwell standard.
