Gillette Blue 3 Disposable (13).

Gillette Black disposable (2). Second shave was definitely better than the first. Not quite as good a shave as a Mach 3, but the pack of three was $1 at Dollar Tree and I wasn't able to resist giving them a try.
 
Razor: Gillette PII Trac II handle
Blade/Cartridge: Personna Twin with lubricating strip (Trac II compatible) (shave 6)
Brush: Omega Sintex synthetic
Soap: Palmolive shave stick
 
Don't tell the guys over on the SE (that's were I spend most of my time) but due to a rash on my neck caused by having to wear surgical masks for 12 hours plus each day, I went with he Wilkinson sword hydro 3 (UK model). Its got around 7 shaves on it and I keep it for just this kinda emergency. Used noxema menthol goo. Nice and smooth.

You can hide out here as long as you like Stu, we won't tell.
 
This thread is not very useful. Why? a very important detail is missing - the beard type!

If you have a thin and soft beard, maybe you can reach 30-60-100 shaves.

In my case (coarse) any cartridge works max 5 times. ex BIC Comfort 3.

Gillette Mach 3 Disposables work for me. I don't have a thick beard but I have sensitive skin. I can get maybe 6 shaves form one razor.

Thanks for your input. Like everything on this forum, Your Mileage May Vary (YMMV). We do all have different beard and skin types. I can regularly get lots of shaves from cartridge razors. I have been able to get 157 shaves from a Gillette SkinGuard and 105 shaves out of a BIC Flex 4. The best that I have ever received from a DE blade was 21 from a Feather. We have members on this forum who can get over 100 shaves out of one DE blade but cannot get 10 shaves out of a cartridge razor. Everyone’s experience is different.
