A few shaves down with my OB #875 (which presumably means that there are at least 875 OBs sold by the time of my ordering). Still haven't tried a de-spined GEM, on my third FHS-10 now. So far my verdict is that price and performance do not correspond. My Mongeese, both alumi and SS, give me mostly as smooth shaves and are a lot more efficient at mowing my whiskers. Beyond build quality, which is most appreciable in the OneBlade, it is in the post shave department that OneBlade shines. It seems that regardless of the feel of the shave itself (today was my fourth on the same blade, and first pass was significantly tugging), the post shave feel is flawless, no irritation, no red or burn. Given today's results I will proceed with a fifth shave on the same blade, but in terms of feel, like I said, I would prefer not to go beyond two I believe.
I am not sure if there's more technique to be learned, though? Have any of you experienced significant improvement with the OB over time? Not sure I have the pivot thing down, whether to pretend it's not there or to try and make conscious use of it.
