Ferrum said:I've treated myself to some Gem blades from Connaught, for use in my Ever-Ready "Natural Angle". These are stainless, coated and with an aluminium spine.
The original Ever-Ready blades, which were not stainless, and rather prone to rusting (even in the wrappers), nonetheless seemed to be quite durable, for about 4 or 5 shaves.
Apart from the usual places which I have trouble over, whatever the razor or blade, I find that I get a really smooth 2-pass shave with the Gem blade. How long will this last before a blade change?
Obviously, with the YMMV caveat, I'd be interested to know what sort of life/use other Ever-Ready users manage to get out of the new Gems.

Though a newcomer to SE, Started of off on 1912 got up to 6 shaves out of Gem.
Similar on 1924 & Flying Wing.
With Streamline and now the !914 , 4 max seems about right for me .
