Rex Supply Co. Konsul XL Slant Adjustable Stainless Steel DE Razor

SKU: RSC-112

Description

The Konsul XL, the newest addition to the Rex Supply Co line. A perfect option for those who loved how the Konsul customized your shaving experience in both closeness and comfort, but prefer a longer handle.

Rex Supply Co. presents “Konsul XL ,” 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 XL 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 XL 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 XL 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 XL 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.

We plate exclusively in 24 Karat, the purist form of the element Au (Gold) at 99.9%. It has the highest luster of that deep and rich yellow color. Cleaning of the razor would be similar to any gold jewelry; best carried out by a professional or specialized Gold cleaning products. Rhodium is a metal in the platinum family. It is a bright white shine that will not tarnish like silver. It rates high on the Moh's scale of hardness and is brilliantly shiny.

    Konsul XL

    I decided for the on-the-fly adjustable Rex Konsul because I have a square chin, and unless I can vary the blade gap during shaving (until now only by switching the plates of the Rockwell S6), it is hard for me to avoid cutting myself. The Ambassador would have done too, but from my readings it seemed too aggressive. After trying in the Konsul some blades I had around: Feather (too sharp), and Rockwell (decent but not quite sharp enough), I settled on Gilette Platinum (newer version, laser-engraved logo). With the Gilette, the Konsul is delivering exactly what was promised: a very smooth but amazingly efficient shave. I turn the dial from 5 to 2 and settings between as I go over various parts of my face, and get consistently great results. Three or four passes make for BBS that lasts most of the day.

    great razor

    I am new to wet shaving this year. I read many reviews and tutorials before diving in. My first razor was an adjustable Vikings blade. It is good and I found the blade and soaps that work for me. I started hearing about this razor which interested me. I watched many YouTube reviews but I usually get more information from the comments. One gentleman who has been wet shaving for 30 years and owns dozens of razors now only uses the Konsul. I went one step further and looked at ebay, not to buy, but to research; there is no secondary market for the Konsul! Its that good. All the tutorials say dont press with a DE razor. I am a daily shaver and I do first pass on 2 or 3 and second on 1 . I can actually press like a cartridge razor on setting 1. I dont need a third pass XTG. I only own the two razors and find no need for more. I keep my other for traveling.

    Amazing!

    Amazing product. I own both the Konsul and the Ambassador, and the Konsul is a cut above.

    Konsul XL

    Since I left the cartridge world have tried several razors and never quite got things right. Bit the bullet on cost and got the Konsul XL (my hands are big), in the polished finished. This is the shave I’ve been chasing all along. The polished razor glides effortlessly. It’s actually rather easy to load a blade after one or two test tries ( I prefer setting the blade on the body of the razor instead of the top cap). Love the easy adjustment dial. Not too stiff and not too loose in terms of turn effort. Excellent grip on the handle and dials (adjust or and top cap cinch). The shave is also effortless. BBS without a nick if desired. One pass DFS if in a hurry. Worth every penny. Would buy again. Probably will - as a gift to my son.
