I have been getting 4 good shaves with the Feather. I don't really look at the cost of using Feathers because it is much cheaper and better than getting 2 or 3 mediocre shaves out of a $3-4 cartridge.

Until it leaves too much stubble to comfortably clean up after.
3 shaves is the magic number for me.
It totally depends on the blade. With a NOS Schick Plus Platinum blade, I can get 10 comfortable shaves but with a Feather blade, only 1. Most blades fall somewhere in between. Of the popular brands, I get 3 or 4 shaves per Astra Superior Platinum blade and 5 shaves out of a Super Iridium.
