Shave 8 and feels like it hasn't aged a bit. Still sharp. Still close. Still smooth. I read where other vintage blades go for a long time but hadn't found a modern one that will go more than 5 and still be efficient. Perhaps made in the USA is here again.
Round 11 with the Personna Lab Blue etched blade and today I called it done. A bit of tugging this morning and over the last two shaves it just seemed to not be performing as good as new. Not uncomfortable mind you, but not as clean a shave as the new blade offered. As it stands this blade kept me clean-shaven for under a penny per session. I could probably get several more shaves from the blade , but why? Into the blade bank it goes. BTW, there are no wax dots on the blade for guys that appreciate that feature. 11good shaves from a modern blade. Impressive.

Good! You’ve been killin’ me @"lipripper660”, and I’m happy for you. However, I’m still waiting for the shipping notice for my replacements (but I am not holding my breath).

Yes! I am pleased to say that he (huizamx) contacted me too. I am looking forward to receiving the same etched blades that work so well for Lipripper660.
