    I might shave with the razor every 3 months or so, so of course mine lasts quite a while. May I suggest though, you should use rubbing alcohol and toilet paper or paper towel to clean and dry the blade after each use. It’ll last a lot longer without rusting.

        I use mine at least once a week these days, used to be almost daily for a long long time. Light skin and very dark hair, I get 5oclock shadow before noon.

        I used to rinse the blade real well, then hit it with a hair dryer for 10 or 20 seconds, blow all the water off and heat it up so it dries extra fast. Never rusted, blades lasted forever.

        These days my tap water is almost 130f, so I just rinse it real good, get it hot, then I shake the crap out of it, and do a single reverse swipe on a towel for each side. Seems to do the trick for me 🤷‍♂️
