New Mühle stainless steel razor 'Rocca'

[The Gentleman]

I had both. The Rocca is better refined, but the Rockwell gives a better shave in all respects and is smoother even on plate 6 IMO. Also the Rockwell doesn’t clog as easily. I would go for the Rockwell for sure ...

I’m one of the few who really dislike the Rockwell... Too heavy, rough finish, 2/3 plates are uselessly mild and I found the head design to be clunky... I would pick the Rocca all day long.

Thank goodness we have the choice eh?!

While I can't compare it to the Rockwell 6S, I can compare it to the Rockwell 6C, and with that caveat I have to agree with @Dr Watson. I find the Rocca to be more comfortable to use (after switching the handle, but I did that with the Rockwell too) and get consistently better results. Oh, and I never had a clogging problem.

Again, I think it’s all very personal. I find that no matter what you read about a razor, you have to try one to make up your mind. And you also need a number of shaves. At first I didn’t like the Timeless but now it’s probably my favourite...

Executive Shave have had 10 (5 of each version) in stock this morning. Contact them directly and be quick!


Good Luck

Gifts&Care had birch wood in stock and they were gone in less than 2 hours.

What's happening here? Without going through many pages, is this razor more efficient than the Timeless 0.95 OC?

 

[wareham]

In my experience no, maybe close but no more efficient.

Rocca is now available at Muhle website.

I am not going to buy Rocca..at least not yet. Maybe next year when there are more shave reports hopefully. I have watched shaving videos with Rocca (well just a couple of those videos available) and it seems to be shaving like R89. Which is not bad..it's just that I need to do a lot of buffing with R89 and a sharp blade.

 

[Dr Watson]

There’s a lot more blade feel than an R89, lots say it’s bang in the middle between the R89 & R41... I’d agree with that.

I have used a Rocca since last January. It's definitely not like a R89. For me it is more effective.

It seems Muhle has been able to start Rocca production in better speed now as I see these razors pop up in webshops now. Good news .

 

[Sausage]

Ok here we go again...
I changed my mind 180 degrees in two days time and I ordered the Black Handle Rocca . I had to do it. I just could not get peace of mind without ordering it. I know you guys understand me !

 

[Eeyore]

@Sausage I am a bit surprised; didn't you think it was too mild for you?
