Like any other equipment, the service life is largely determined by the
level of maintenance it enjoyed. The same can be said of double edge razorblades. Ideally blades have different service life and this is as a result of the
difference in brands and coarseness of the hair. Generally blades are expected
to last for about two to three shaves before becoming dull. An exception to
this case is when using top quality razor blades like those of Vikings Blade,
Gillette, and others. For these once, the blades can give an average person up
to five to seven shaves before reducing in sharpness. For some with less coarse
hair types, the blade can shave further than that.
The best place to store a blade that's not in use is in its original
packing. Among other things, you wouldn't want your blade getting contaminated
by placing it in an unclean environment. After using your blades for shaves,
ensure you dry them out thoroughly with the aid of a dry towel or napkin.
Although manufacturers make blades that are coated with materials to prevent
rust, it is good to discard blades that have stayed too long in the razor.
After a while, they could start to get corroded. Blades were not designed to
spend an eternity in their razors.
