I ended up with the Rocca as my favorite daily driver. Very close and efficient shave. Until now he never bite me.

Hi Geo, wonderful Germany vs. England, a old fashioned soccer final. Sport by side, I own both and I've to say for the price those are 2 wonderful razor, nice, smooth and efficient. Always a pleasure to see your videos, buy both!! As I did

Someone said you were the gold medalists at the Olympics for shaving. I believe it. After watching your videos I bought a cheap safety razor and first time using it I had a good clean shave and no irritation like multi blade cartridges. Thanks Geofatboy.

Geo this was the best showdown comparison video on these two excellent razors!

Hi Geo- Great shave and razor show down; thank you. I have had my on the eye Rocca for sometime. Have a great weekend. Be safe and be well. Best regards, as always, Geo!

Thanks Geo for another outstanding “face-off”….With football season over and baseball up in the air, these competitions are a pleasure to watch. Please keep them up!

Loving these comparison shaves Geo! 👊

I just received my Muhle R94 today and haven’t used it yet, but it is a beautiful. I can’t wait until tomorrow. I must admit however that the little pamphlet included in the box would scare the bejesus out of someone new to DE shaving. A little common sense is all it takes. Your videos are terrific and appreciate your prompt service.

I have a Mühle Rocca and for me it's the perfect combination of efficiency and smoothness (especially with a Sputnik blade). Since I have it I don't use any other razor. It's not only the performance that is superb, it's one of the most beautiful razors on the market imo and due to the small head you can use it perfectly for trouble spots (under the nose).

Another great video by the best shave channel on KZread

I placed an order from shavenation yesterday and can’t wait to get it. I could have maxed my card out in your website you have such great a selection but then I’d have no place to shave after the wife kicks me out of the house. Love the channel.

Great comparison video! Rockwell 6S vs 6C should be another one to visit.

Just got myself an R94 Rocca. Thanks for the comparison video!

Great! Thanks.

I have the Muhle Rocca with the Birchbark handle and it's gorgeous and a great shaver.

Nice comparison shave Geo💈💈 Well matched pair for this shave-off. I had the 3ONE6 SS Knurled Handle version, a bit heftier than the aluminum handle version. Got it as soon as available so no experience with reviews. My expectation was the SS 3ONE6 would shave the same as the DE89, so I proceeded to shave and after the first two/three strokes, I knew I'd messed up. I was surprised to say the least as the geometry was totally different and the shave was much more aggressive for my skin. Passed it along to my son who likes it so no loss there. Thanks for the video, well done as always. See ya next time. Enjoy!

Great comparison!! 👍

Also the figure eight is now stuck forever in my routine! 😎

What a great video GEO. I've been looking at these 2 razors for awhile, thanks for the review. You sold me on the Rocca, ordered from you with the birch bark handle, can't wait to try it!

Excellent video

I find the Rocca is surprisingly aggressive. Right behind the R41. A pleasant surprise for me. Have not tried the 3-1-6 but it looks nice too.

Rocca may be one of my future purchases.

top video !! thanks

hi Geofatboy very nice Job again.

Hi Geo, great video as always. Would you say that the Fine Marvel razor is more aggressive than the ones used in this video ?

I want to see a full month beard grown on Geo. I wear a business beard and maintain the cheek line and neck line. As posted before the safety razor made a HUGE difference with no reddens or irritation on cheek or neck area.

I have the 3 1 six. Great razor. Definitely a step down from my R41

Hi Geo, great video as always. I have one noob question is it bad to keep skin cleared with alum block unrinsed on your skin?

The DE89 actually scratches my face more than the 3ONE6, because of that sharp-ass baseplate. I guess I win "Sensitive Shaver Of The Year" Award.

Hello Geo, how do you compare the Mühle Rocca and Compannion in terms of aggressiveness?

I own both in the stainless steel version with the stainless steel handles. The Edwin Jagger handle is too thin for my liking and a tad too short. I bought an extra Mühle Rocca with the stainless steel handle and placed the handle on the Edwin Jagger 316 head. It’s now a far more well balanced razor. I also own the Mühle Rocca in the jet black version and in the Birchwood version. All my Rocca heads are version 4. While the Edwin Jagger 316 is a great razor head design and gives me great shaves, my overall favourite razor head deign is the Mühle Rocca version 4 (v.4) It’s the overall best DE razor I’ve yet tried and I’ve owned more than 50+ different DE razors over the last 10+ years. I’m going to buy more Mühle Rocca v.4 razors whenever I see them on sale for a good price as this razor simply performs so superbly for me - so I want to stock up on them in case I drop one of my Rocca’s on the floor or in other ways might lose them. Cheers, Claus from Copenhagen in Denmark

Very good video! :)

Gro please tell me PARKER 22R vs FEATHER POPULAR RAZOR which one is better please tell me. Which one you recommend.

Geo, can you come to England and open a store next to Taylor’s of old bonds street? Thanks.

I prefer the menthol eucalyptus porasso shave soap, with the clubman aftershave

Is the R41 alot better then the rocca?

love the half / half shaves. im just stepping up from edwin jagger DE89 to an intermediate razor. what model was the Rocca ?

Great shave Geo 🤙 I have both of these razors and i would agree with your findings. I often put an alpha sure grip on the 3one6 to give it heft. Top man, be well Sir 🙏

Good comparison but were you using the Rocca with your dominant hand? If yes it would be interesting to see if the result would be the same if you compared them again & this time use the 3ONE6 with your dominant hand.

Thanks for watching-Best from the US!

I have been getting a lot of razor bumps lately esp on my neck with gillette mach 3 turbo since my skin is quite sensitive. I switched to Skinguard which is nice but does not shave very well. Your videos have inspired me to switch to a DE razor and I have already ordered one. I already follow the pre-shave routine with mach 3 which you stress a lot on but I am terrified about cutting my whole face as I have never used a DE razor. I have watched most of your videos and have some theoretical understanding but do you have any last minute tips for someone about to shave with a DE razor for the first time? P.S To all my DE shaver gentlemen.

Hi there…..Preparing is key. Get a good quality shaving soap/cream and don’t hesitate about using plenty of hot water. Keep a sharp blade and don’t get in a hurry as you use very little pressure during your shaving stoke. After your shave, be sure and hydrate your face with a non alcohol balm or lotion.

I have the 3 one 6, and the R41. The Rocco is on it’s way. I look forward to getting it as I shave daily. The 3 one 6 is great but I want just a little more aggression where as the R41 is just a little much for a daily driver. Lol that thing is a straight edge disguised as a safety razor lol.

After receiving the Rocca, which one do you prefer now ? I used the 3one6 for 6 months and as soon as I got the Rocca I couldn't put it down, much better than the 3one6 in my opinion.

The Rocca is the better razor. It's very well engineered and feels more substantial, which is important for stainless steel. I also prefer it to the Muhle R41 GS.

Agreed. It's not for the uninitiated though

Muhle Rocca Geo my all time favorite. Used it 165 times with the following blades: 1.Wilkinson Sword 2.Muhle 3.Gillette 7oclock green 4.Tiger 5.Merkur 6.Shark 7.Derby 8.Boots unbranded 9.Treet It's a razor blade transformer no matter what blade I used it transforms it. I follow manufacturer's advice with the grain and gives me a smooth nick free shave. I love it!!!

Good video. I liked the previous intro more though. This one goes on too long for me. Bring Back the old one pls.

I have a 3one6 and never got a really close shave with a Feather blade. However with an Astra Platinum and a Gillette Silver Blue I get an extremely close and comfortable shave with my 3one6. I might add that I have never been a fan of Feather blades. I do appreciate all your videos and have a great respect for your opinions.

Dave, I am hearing more and more about the Blackland razors, in particular the Blackbird and the new Era. Perhaps we can get Geo to incorporate these razors into the “face-offs. Todays competition with the Rocca looks like a perfect blend of the Muhle R41 and the 89.

@@butchwaxx2652 Hi Butch, Lots of people said in videos, "Jim will shave" for one, that it is as close feeling to a straight (cutthroat) that you can get. I have never used a straight but I get what they mean. It doesn't have a huge blade gap (I will try and find out what the gap is) but it has quite a lot of blade exposure. Incredibly close feel though. A beautiful razor too, all Stainless and modelled on the Blackbird stealth aircraft. I have 28 razors, most high end and none feel like the Blackbird. Dave.

Butch, Further to my previous comment. Blackland say the Blackbird is 7/10 on the aggression scale. They don't give a blade gap or exposure. I have a shaving log to record all my Shaves with the aim of getting my perfect shave. Razor, blade, brush and soap. I also have about 17 shaving brushes and at present around 35 different types of blade. With some razors having 3 or more plates it's quite a task! Each shave is like a piece of a jigsaw puzzle, ending hopefully in a picture of my perfect shave. I'm not there yet but I'm learning a lot. One thing that is becoming very clear, is just how good the Rockwell 6S is. It is great with any blade I put in it and unlike a true adjustable all plates are smooth shaving!! Dave.
