How many shaves do you get out of them?

This is a super easy question for Fuzzy (Wchnu) to answer.  Word on the street is that he obsessively counts his shaves with each blade (and razor), uses some 20-sided dice from his Dungeon & Dragons game (I hear he's a 13th-level Dungeon Master) to keep track, and then he enters the final numbers into multiple spreadsheets -- which are stored on his many high-end gaming computers.  Plus he tracks his shaves with an app on his phone.... 

Okay -- I'm just tugging on Fuzzy's whiskers -- he is not a shave-blade counting kind of guy.  He uses a blade until it gives out, and then pitches it and moves on; and I don't believe he pays a lick of attention as to how many shaves he got out of the blade -- but maybe he'll prove me wrong when he shows up and drops the proverbial hammer on me.    

And while I'm not quite the person described above (I've never played D&D), I used to keep track and I found that I could get 15+ shaves from my GEM SS PTFE blades versus a maximum of 5 shaves with the Carbon blades.  I will say that all 5 shaves with the Carbon are smooth, while the first couple of shaves with the Gem SS PTFE are harsh (but the remaining 13 are really nice).  So I like and use both blades, but I'm pretty cheap and like the longevity I get from the SS blades.   Just thought I'd jump into this conversation, and have some fun with Fuzzy.

I am going to have fun picking out new mods after I ban you and Ordinaryshaver...


But really. Great to see you. I will be interested to find out if there really is that big a gap in the number of shaves.  I will start that here soon. Maybe even start a thread on it. 

Great to see you by the way!!
