Dave, I will start by saying that I absolutely love the OneBlade razor. Now the FHS blade not so much. I have 2 OneBlade Razors, 1 of which I can use a Gem blade with just removing the spine and a newer model that requires more steps to use a Gem blade. I have been on the search for a razor that works like the OneBlade but uses a more available blade. I tried the Focus R48 Evo and it was anything but user friendly. I have never used a razor more prone to giving me cuts. When I saw the High Proof Version 2 mentioned here on DFS I just had to try it. The HP razor is everything I hoped it would be. A completely idiot proof razor that provided me with a drama free, smooth and close shave. I used it like a cartridge razor and applied pressure. I do the exact same thing with a OneBlade. For me the High Proof works very well. I can see where it might not work as well for those that are not daily shavers. I will keep using it and update my initial impressions.

Clint, GREAT synopisis ! Thanks, looking forward to trying it in the pass around. Had a OneBlade gifted to me and passed it along. No likey the FHS blade. Maybe the HP will shine for me too. Thanks again !
