What's new

Which blade did you toss today? After how many uses?

Astra SP 3 uses. I can and have gotten 4 and 5 uses out of them but it doesn't feel the same or I get weepers so I just discard after three (they are so cheap).
Funny because when I used to use carts I would use those things up to a month trying to get every shave out of the expensive suckers that I could. I would shave long after the lube strip was worn off.
For reference I shave every day.
Exactly the same experiences here!

Gillette Nacet (7).
 
US Personna Lab Blue, circa 2013 (13 and out because it is now bloodthirsty)

Blade is still sharp and looked great, but 6 nicks today.

I don't think I have ever had a Lab Blue get dull. I just throw them away when I start to get nicks or want a change. They seem to last forever, unlike any other blade for me.
