Our country being run by folks who have very little knowledge about anything, let alone growing an economy has its little sparks of good here and there, and here is one that played in your favour! Big brands do not bother to register trademarks in countries where they see little scope of supply and expansion, so one can sell items that look similar to popular brands, and this specific model is a clone/copy of the ever popular Rockwell 6C

The Rockwell 6c is in my opinion the most successful razor brands launced this side of the 2000's; the number of reviews on their website, sales figures and volumes of guys who love them to bits says it all. We will retain the Rockwell brand and their 6c on our website for those who prefer the original, but this is a great option for those who are on a budget, and also a great alternative for us to offer when we are out of Rockwell stock (the downside of a failing economy...we do not have enough bucks to stock all the cool stuff all of the time!) 

The packaging is certainly not as nice (a simple white box), and it has no Rockwell branding, but apart from that it looks to be the same thing. It comes standard with six plates for 6 different 'settings' from mild to aggressive, enabling you to dail in your shaving experience to your desired level of blade exposure and smoothness. It is an adjustable razor system that functions in a lesser complicated way than most adjustables that have dails that adjusts the gap in situe, with this one you change the plates or flip them over, this action brings about various blade gaps and shaving results.

The finishing is really good; to be honest we have only had troubles with finishing on a single brand of razors we stocked in 8 years, so we believe the technology on coatings is in a very good space, with consumers not having to worry about plate loss, contamination, or the flaking of coatings after water is ingressed between the metal and coating.

The razor is a few grams heavier than the Rockwell 6c we listed a few years ago and weighs in at 102 grams, all other dimensions are identical to the original 6c and it stands 95 mm tall.

This razor comes in 5 finishes, and in the box is a handle, cap and three baseplates each with one 'setting' on either side of it.  We will also stock spares of these razors, and these should also fit your original Rockwell razor.

Safety Razor DE32

It’s easy. Start with the lower numbers and work your way up until you find the correct plate and setting for your skin.

Unlike some of the other DE razors, the blade exposure is exactly the same on both sides with the DE32. It is absolutely symmetrical and was something which I found on other DE razors to be a problem. The build quality is of a very high standard and the razor feels solid once a blade and the plate are inserted and everything is screwed back together. There are no unnecessary gaps or movement. This razor can feel a little on the heavy side for some users and it has a short handle, but it is perfectly balanced and I can understand why the original is a best seller. For the price you get one of the best DE razors and is a must-have.

I bet my hat on it that many people will do what I did. The old trusty razor which you have been using till now will be put aside to permanently make space for the DE32.

Perfect razor

This feels like a real upgrade from my previous DE razor at the same price. Premium feel and lekker shave. I love the versatility offered by the interchangeable plates.

Safety razor DE32

This is an excellent product and it gives a smooth shave with one pass. Definatley worth investing in it. I am reminded of the razor that I started my shaving with as it was similar to this. I would recomend changing from these 5 blade expensive rasors that give 3 or 4 shaves and already start to pull through instead of cutting the beard. Excelent razor highly recommended.

Great stable razor

This works well and holds the blade tightly. So there is no chatter when shaving. Love the idea of one razor with 6 blade settings. I have only used the 3-bar and will try others when the blade is changed. Would recommend. The Rockwell site recommends that you get 6 shaves from 1 blade. I am still on the first blade. Great price too.

DE 32 razor.

I've been using a Gillette Tech Safety razor and the Gillette King C razor for several years. Before that, I used a cartridge razor. However, I've always wanted a Rockwell razor. But I found it too expensive. I found the DE32 on the bundu beard site, or it found me. I jumped at the opportunity to purchase it for the most reasonable price it was going for.
I use it on the number 4 setting, with only one pass. The Gillette razors I had to do two passes. The razor is well-made and of excellent quality.
Although the head is thick, it gets under my nose with no issue.
I would definitely recommend this razor.
