The Rolls Razor is an astonishingly good piece of kit which you can (still) pick one up in perfectly serviceable order for very little money. It's an intriguing object in its own right.anyone use those self stropping razors like the rolls razor these days?
What are they like? Any good?
Always been intrigued by these tbh
Really? Didnt know that!The Rolls Razor is an astonishingly good piece of kit which you can (still) pick one up in perfectly serviceable order for very little money. It's an intriguing object in its own right.
Funny to think that the company ditched razors and went on to make washing machines!
Looks interesting that Darwin razor tooWedge blades were commonplace in safety razors in the early days and persisted for a good few decades after thin blades became the norm. Check out the Heljestrand Kindal. Oh, there was a Darwin strop box akin to the Rolls, too. Loads of other examples. Le Grelot, L'Essor, Louis ... and many others not beginning with L. The Wilkinson hollow ground blades were pretty special.
The Valetfollow on question, what's considered to be the best stropping safety razors out there? The rolls razor or wilkinson 7 day set?
Btw are there more out there?
I don't really know of any others tbh
Is that an adjustable too?The Valet
Yes.anyone shave just WTG?
Well Yes and No.anyone shave just WTG?
The mechanism can be quite sloppy on older (and cheaper) examples, giving a poor impression of what was otherwise a really advanced razor. If you were keen on buying one, look for the later model - the W19 (in a metal case) or the very rare W12 (plastic case).Seen one a vid that the Wilkinson sword 7 day razor is adjustable which I think is pretty cool too
