How long does a razor stay sharp?
My professionally honed blade is still giving me really comfortable shaves with nothing more than a good stropping in between. I'm still using multiple razors every day, comparing my honing efforts to it, so it's not getting a full shave every day, but pretty close.
The blade is a red-injun #101 spike point. Any idea how long I can expect this to last before it needs a touch up on the hone? I'm tempted to stop using it all together except when I need to do direct comparisons just to prevent it from getting dull.
I know that the time window on such things is really variable, but just a general range will do... one, two, maybe even three months of daily use?
