The Rockwell 6S features three reversible base plates. Just flip the plate over to choose the shave you want from mild to aggressive. Choose from six settings, 1-6, the higher the number the closer the shave you'll get. This way you choose the level of aggressiveness you need, you may wish to start off with number 5 or 6 if you have a few days growth and polish off with a 1 or 2 plate on second and third passes.\nPair up with the Rockwell Safety Razor Stand.
