I don't think a Personna blade outlasts a Feather DE for anyone else. To me the Feathers feel thinner and more flexible. Others say ther're the same thickness. But even the increased flexibility could cause them to vibrate against a heavy beard. That usually presents a comfort issue, not a cutting issue. If we were talking about str8s, the sharper edge would be less durable, but the Feathers vae some kind of edge treatment which changes the equation and is known to make the edge more durable.
Whatever the reason, Mparker's experiences don't seem to correspond to what's typical or what most of us could expect.
One week on a DE blade is average. A cartridge that lasts a month is an urban legend. we also need to know how often the person shaved, how many passes, and whether he had leather-like skiin and peach fuzz.
