OneBlade Element - Very Impressed

I've been using the OneBlade Core for a year, and recently decided to upgrade to the OneBlade Element. I’m really impressed with this razor – it feels perfectly balanced with just the right weight. The new Hi Carbon Blades are a significant improvement over the Feather blades, providing me with a much closer shave. While I’m looking forward to the Genesis when I decide to upgrade again, the Element is such a big step up from the Core that I may end up sticking with it.

Anyone else using the OneBlade Element and if so what are your thoughts on it?

I’ve used one that they made for Ridge for the last couple of shaves, looks like the Element, I think just the head material differs, and I’m liking it. I’ve tried a Genesis a while back but found it heavy (I prefer lighter razors). No experience with the new blades though, only got the feathers.

If One Blade would ever make an open comb version of their razors I would be all over it. I had a CORE at one time and thought it was pretty good for what it was. These razors are good for when you are in a hurry. With the pivoting head you can go very fast and two passes will give an acceptable shave. I wish that they still made the CORE. It was cheap and made a good gym razor.

I just picked up the Ridge Collab with OneBlade.  Have a shave brother sending me a couple of the new blades to try out.  Looking forward to it… I owned a Genesis years ago and sold it after getting fed up with the cost per shave of the feather blades.  

I own a Core that I picked up on sale a while back.  Happy to part ways with it if you’re interested. Just pay for shipping kind of thing.

I wish that they still made the CORE.  It was cheap

This one is selling for $39 and it’s not plastic.
