5.0 out of 5 starsA bit expensive, a little delicate but the blades work and last well
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 18 November 2019
I use OneBlade to remove 98% of stubble before getting very close with a Gillette blade. I find the OneBlade gets pretty close, but not quite as close as a wet shave - which to be fair, is what I expected, despite what Philip's marketing blurb may say.
Overall The OneBlade works very efficiently with no nicks or irritation. If the blade pulls, it's likely time to replace it, and there is a wear indicator to watch.
I prefer using the blade dry, tapping it clean and rinsing it under the tap when done, I seem to get better cutting that way.
The blades have lasted well, I found several months pass between blade changes based on shaving 0.5-2 times per week.
The only downside I've experienced, expense aside, is that the blades are relatively fragile: Drop the OneBlade with a blade in it, or put the OneBlade in a rather full toiletries bag that gets squished in your luggage, and you may find the blade snaps and has to be replaced.
This is easily overcome by a) not dropping your OneBlade :) or b) removing the blade before travel, or using a travel case.
Overall - I'm very happy with OneBlade, I'd definitely recommend it.
