The topic is the 'One Blade' safety razor. Let's keep on topic please .......... :angel:
Grazor, I'm sure that you know by now that the number of shaves one gets from a blade depends on many different variables . . . how thick & wirily one beard is, how long/number of days in between shaves, how close you want your shave to be (DFS or BBS), etc. I have a "medium" (again this is very subjective) beard, shave every other day (sometimes 2 days in between) and would probably get one or two more shaves out of a blade than someone who has a heavy, coarse beard. So unless you are comparing "apples to apples; oranges to oranges", comparing different peoples experiences regarding the number of shaves one gets from a particular blade, is meaningless, IMHO!:)
Not exactly meaningless when you consider some of the members using feather pro blades in the Kasmisori style razors are getting 6-7 shaves from a blade. At near $1 a blade for the oneblade system, that is quite expensive IMHO, and so is the razor. I would have expected more than 3 no matter the beard type, and up to 7. Will be interested to read how you get on.
Must be. How does it compare to the Mongoose? The head on that thing looks bulky, same with the Mongoose.
I also have a Mongoose which is a great razor and I use in my current rotation of ATT R1, ATT S1, Mergress, and Mongoose. When I receive my OneBlade, next week, I will add that razor to my rotation. So as you can see, I shave every other or third day, and will be using 5 different razors. The ATT's and the Mergress use regular DE blades (I use various brands, Astra, Persona Reds, GSB), I use Feather Artist Club Pros in my Mongoose and of course will be using Feather 10's in my OneBlade. I generally receive excellent shaves with all my current razors, DFS/BBS, no irritations, no weepers and stick to my "3 shaves per blade" rule!:)
The Mongoose appears to be bulky but it's not. It's an efficient razor.
After checking out the oneblade website Google will not leave me alone. I just checked the weather forecast and there were 3 adds on that page. :roflmao
