When using a Parker SRW Shavette, with a Gillette Nacet Stainless blade broken in half, I get about 3 shaves. The blade seems to die when I am almost finished on my 3rd shave.
When I use a DE razor ('40's Super Speed, Flare Super Speed, Merkur Progress) with the Nacet, I get about 3 shaves. With the blade dying as I am finishing my 3rd shave.
So I am getting twice as many shaves per blade edge with the shavette. Does this make sense? Maybe because I am using a shallower angle with the shavette? Anyone else experience this? (My Shark single edge blades give me about one shave per blade in the shavette, but I probably should try and stretch that a little more.)
