    I just change blades when they don't perform. Might be three shaves, might be five.

    My system, if there ever was one worthy of the name, broke down long ago. About three weeks go by between my DE shaves typically, so I've been trusting my memory, and against all the odds this has worked very nicely thus far, but I really am going to have to start writing things down. When in doubt I just change the blade before starting - I'm not about to run short any time soon after all.

    I do not use DE at home any more but when at work for longer periods i use DE. Probably i just change the blade when it doesn't shave nicely any longer. Something between 3 - 6 shaves i guess.

    I rotate alot of DE razors with the Straights and can never keep track of the numbers so I only change blade when the shave is rough. I got a real rough shave off a Shark SS that I'm sure was only three shaves old. In a Schick Krona BTW that is now matched with a vintage Krona Chrome blade that's real smooth.
