To get the most utility for my dollar. Many of us started this journey to save money. So, why not use the blades to their full potential.Frankly, I do not understand why anyone would want to get so many shaves out of a blade.
If a blade was tugging, I'd toss it too. But so far the only thing that has really dropped off is a lack of smootheness. And I don't mind that because I like the added feel it has. No tugging, and the shave quality has not dropped off. That is how I judge a shave and when a blade needs to go. When 3PM rolls around and I feel my face, if I feel a lot of stubble, then I know that the morning's shave was not close enough. That's when the blade gets tossed. So far, the blade is still going strong.Yes, I could go 3 or 4 days, or even possibly 10 days on the same blade before it begins to tug. But, why bother?
So far, that feather blade has cost me 4 cents per week. 2 Packs could last me a year instead of a whole carton.They cost about 87.5 cents per week at the rate I go through them.
