I started to use the single "use & toss" method for blades a few months back,since mathematically ,I have enough to last another 100 years worth of shaves,and I already hit age 65.The exception is for blades unknown to me.The Triton is a blade I have never tried,made in Germany by the company that produces Croma Diamant ,a blade I rate as mediocre.I finished up shave #6 with the Triton today,and it was still a good shave.The first 5 shaves were smooth and trouble free,with every shave utilizing the same fat handle Tech.I have no doubt I could have squeezed out another shave or 2,but at 6 fine shaves I am satisfied and impressed.A real bargain at it's low price,highly recommended.
