Rex Supply Co. | Konsul Slant Adjustable Stainless Steel Double Edge Safety Razor

SKU: 4209

Description

Rex Supply Co. presents “Konsul,” the only Adjustable Stainless Steel Slant Razor in the world. Designed for a lifetime of use and Made in the USA from marine grade stainless steel. The Konsul customizes your shaving experience in both closeness and comfort, and provides a 'blade neutral' feel with the efficiency of a slant.

This product was developed by wet shaving enthusiasts to deliver a fully customizable shaving experience. A slant razor is a highly efficient tool that removes coarse stubble effortlessly and does not irritate sensitive skin. Inspired by the French guillotine, and perfected by the Germans, a slant razor is the perfect solution for shavers suffering from coarse beards and sensitive skin because of the slicing motion. We wanted to pay tribute to our slant's roots in German shaving history, but wanted to express it is equal to the ranking of 'Ambassador' and the name Konsul was chosen.

This double edge safety razor is manufactured from marine-grade stainless steel for maximum durability and ease-of-use. It is perfectly weighted and balanced and features our new technology, Diamond Grip handle. Many have said our Sure Grip handle is the best they've ever felt... but just wait until you experience our Diamond Grip!

From the moment you place the Konsul in your hands you will feel the benchmark for modern handles shift. Diamond Grip creates friction that feels like the handle is gripping you back allowing you to discover brilliant security during your shaves, even when wet. This precision cut knurl is featured for the first time on our new Konsul Slant Adjustable Razor and is just another facet that makes the Konsul Slant Adjustable a must experience!

The Konsul is infinitely adjustable, making it easy to find the best possible blade exposure for your skin. Just turn the integrated dial up or down to adjust the amount of blade gap for a milder or more aggressive shave. It is fully compatible with any double edge blade, giving you lots of options and combinations to “dial-in” a consistently perfect shaving experience. After just a few passes, you’ll find the razor glides across the skin almost effortlessly, while leaving behind a noticeably soft, clean and fully groomed path.

The Konsul is Made in the USA and designed for a lifetime of use. Each razor features an individual serial number and a manufacturing code that adheres to the classic Gillette® product dating system.

    Konsul Slant Adjustable Razor

    The Rex Konsul is an excellent razor that delivers a very comfortable shave. The fit and finish are superb. However, loading the blade can be a bit tricky. The top cap tabs are not long enough align the blade without applying pressure to hold it in place while tightening the base knob. Surprising for a premium razor not to be 100% perfect from a design perspective.

    Polished Rex Konsul

    For those wondering how the Konsul compares to the Ambassador: The Konsul is a completely different razor than the Rex Ambassador. It is less blade forward. It is still highly efficient (10 hours BBS) with the slant and the adjustable blade gap. I find both the Rex Ambassador and Konsul to be very smooth, but the Konsul has significantly less blade feel. My preferred setting on the Konsul seems to be around 4. The polished finish is EXCELLENT. Not a single mark can be seen by the naked eye. Highly polished that rivals any high end razor maker. You can feel the tension of the torqued blade as you put on and tighten the top cap as well as when you adjust setting. This tension means the blade is being held very ridged to minimize any blade chatter. I dont have any issues loading the blade whatsoever. But I'm used to slant razors. The knurling is GORGEOUS. It isn't as grippy as the Ambassador, but it is very good. Overall, I highly recommend this Konsul to those who wants 1. A smooth and efficient shaver, 2. A very high end piece that will last a life time or three, 3. A Rex Ambassador like efficient razor with less blade feel.

    not what I expected

    I am probably bias, I already had an ambassador XL and that thing is a perfect 10. The Konsul is not a bad razor but the grip on the handle is slippery and I heard so many times that a slant was the closest most comfortable shave you could ever ask for. I need to keep getting to know it obviously but so far it's just not what I expected. I probably need to set the adjustment higher to 4 or 5 because I can't seem to line out my beard with detail like I can with the ambassador XL.. This is the opinion of one man so take it with a grain of salt

    Great but not perfect for everyone

    I purchased the konsul after having owned the ambassador for a bit. The razor is very efficient, giving a perfectly clean shave. The grip is grippier than the ambassador but strangely enough, not as grippy as I thought when your hands are wet - probably related to the weight of this piece. I find it slightly too heavy for my liking - but only slightly so. Due to its efficiency, I find it always nicks the moles on my face (even on setting 2) - unlike some other razors like the Rockwell 6S and the Carbon 316 that can also give a BBS shave I even get fewer nicks with my Mühle R41. Oh it does not need to be said, but be careful - I have many razors and got used to holding the head in my left hand then unscrewing the handle to clean it. I did the same with the konsul but it slipped when I unscrewed the bottom knob (while on setting 6) and cut my thumb quite deeply. This is 100% my stupidity but just a word of caution to take extra care - there is no need to hold the head, just hold the stem. The finish (I got the Rhodium plated version) is beautiful and well done - super shiny. All in all a great razor - but it depends on your skin type how much you will love it.
