Hey guys, just wanted to give some thoughts on these two razors. I owned a 6S for close to a year and was never completely satisfied with it. I loved the different heads, closeness, and overall end results of the SHAVE itself. However, I never could get used to how abrasive the finish was. When I first received the razor I emailed Rockwell customer service right away concerned how rough the finish was. I was assured this was normal and I'm sure it was. The abrasiveness bugged me so much I almost sent it to Delta Echo for a refinish. I could not justify spending as much as I did on the razor on the coating though.
I sold the 6S and bought a 6C and the difference, in my opinion, is night and day. The chrome is so much smother, I believe without a doubt I am getting smother shaves. Yes, it will not last near as long being that is pot metal but for $50 bucks I can purchase another one in a few years if they are still around. I just wanted to give my 2 cents on the two, if you want something to hand down the 6S is your razor. If not, you may just be happy with the C.
