Don't feel guilty, Matt. I'll despine a couple more GEM blades for @missingskin and @Nico1970. PM me your address and I'll pop them in the mail asap.I will have another go with the Feather and then switch to the GEM, but there is only one GEM blade left, so I may feel a little guilty!!!

I'll do a bit more despining of GEM blades thenI'm going to open up the list for another few members to try the One Blade.
If you look at this, you have to cut out a couple of bits each side of the gem blade, then it will lock in position.

But if you dont get on with the feather blades, you have an alternative.Very useful!!!
Can't help think though that it's a lot of fannying about for a very expensive razor!!
Hi
I have shaved again with the Feather and did not enjoy it. The was the third time using that blade, so for me two shaves was enough.
I then moved onto the GEM and I think I prefer this blade, however like previously mentioned in this thread, as the blade is not locked into position it definitely got moved back from its "fully pushed in position" through the shave. I had to push it back in position twice. This isn't the end of the world, but is a shame for such a beautifully designed and machined razor.
I'll have another go with the GEM, make my final conclusions and then pass it on early next week!
@missingskin can you ping me your address?
Matt
Yeah..A lot of folks have found that the blade moves..Its got to move..I have always said this & that's why this Guy has went to the length's he did to solve it..Not only that..The blade also has Vibrations coming up through it when its not locked down and that Sure Aint No YMMV thing..I thought Billy was talking shite about that. Maybe not then.
