Your thoughts on OneBlade

I would go farther and say the best razor ever made--I have used many,many DE's and SE's and  while I have got comparable BBS shaves,
no razor has ever left me BBS for this many hours after the shave. After reading all the reviews about the oneblade and how mild it was, I was skeptical I would like it because I always used aggressive DE's... ATTH2, 2011 R41,Shavecraft Tech,etc...---After 3 shaves with the oneblade,all those razors went to the BST. I have to agree with the oneblade marketing slogan and that shocked me but the slogan is true.

Barry, now, I am even more intrigued to try this razor.

I shaved with it this morning.  I am going to refrain from giving my impressions on its performance until I have a few more shaves.  With one exception:  I have shaved with a bunch of DE's, including the famed R41, and even tried a straight for a while - the OneBlade did the best job on my jawline of any razor I have used.   The jawline is a problem area on my face that has never been addressed to my complete satisfaction by any razor.  The OneBlade impressed me.  SharpSpinead written that it was outstanding on the jawline; I was dubious.  Jawline performance:  excellent.

Excellent to hear Tom Slick!

Yeah, even though I went back to my Wolfman OC this morning and remembered how much I love that razor (and how well it does for me), it's true that the OneBlade still out-performs anything else I have when it comes to traversing my jawline, chin, and neck without any issues. I can get there with other razors, but it takes extra care, and it all comes together only occasionally. With the OneBlade it's easy-peasy.

Celestino---It really is unbelievable

I would so love to try this razor but the price is simply too off-putting to me.

My apologies if this was already discussed but going through the entire thread was just too much reading so I ready about 5 pages and didn't find anything specific about this:
has any of you tried modifying a GEM to fit in the OneBlade without smiles? I did it with a couple of GEM carbons I had sitting around and am loving it. The modification was done with a drill and a tedious process that is absolutely impractical but its a starting point (for me at least).
Has anyone has tried something similar?

It is a lot but I justified it by saying look at the price of high end brushes---that made me feel better

Excellent way to rationalize the purchase

The only problem is that I don't do high end brushes, either.
