Once in a rare while I don't get 20 shaves, but that's extremely rare. Unmentionables? The best of the best give me 8 shaves and those brands are very few. The majority aren't worth using and I tested a lot of them. The difference between a GEM SS ptfe blade and an unmentionable when they get dull? The GEM just stops cutting efficiently. The unmentionable grabs the skin, bites, and draws blood.
God luck with your test! Let us know how you make out.
Sure thingI I will be posting on this thread all my shaves. If I can get 30+ shaves out of a GEM blade I would save so much money in a year. 12 blades a year is cheap. The unmentionable is one of those two sided thingies that is adjustable and has slim handle but it is vintage so it has that going for it. I am playing with fire there talking about an unmentionable I hope I do not get banned. It was my favorite razor but my Schick injector took it's place recently. There is one blade I enjoy in that unmentionable which gets me at least 4 close shave but I need to try to push it to see how many I get from both. Do you want to join me in a GEM 1912, Williams, Aqua Velva Ice Blue month?
