Very good point - we're not targeting everyday shavers with this estimate. We're hoping this campaign can appeal to individuals just being introduced to single-blade shaving. Experienced Classic shavers know how many shaves they get out of each blade, they definitely don't need to be told!
Fair enouigh, Gareth, so why not simply say "between one and two years?" Even one year for 100 blades at $10.00 is inexpensive and new DE shavers may take that "two years" literally and try to stretch the use of each blade longer than they should for their beard and skin type. You might not have happy campers if they do. Just my 2¢.
I have been using Rockwell blades for a few weeks now. I have been getting 8-10 shaves per blade. I've been very happy with them and just picked up another 100
