I'll also always give a new make of blade at least 2 shaves just in case it "beds in". I'll also try it out in both my Slim & my Slant. Since as we know some blades do perform differently in various razors, for whatever reason. If all that produces what for me is a dud I just forget that make entirely. As you say, there are too many nice blades out there to mess around with unsuitable ones.
If I'm using a DE then it's mostly Feathers or Timor & since I have found out that I get 3 good shaves with either before they get sticky I bin them after 3 uses. Again, I do agree that at the cost of a blade I'm not going to spoil a shave by going for a record no of shaves with it.
Mainly though this month, I shall be using mainly GEM single edge.

THAT many???hunnymonster said:So at the end of a journey through a zillion blades, I've ended up with 5 or 6 brands and types that I like.
