Mach3 Cartridges

i shave like every 3-4 days, use it for like 2-3 months. i'm lazy about changing them, by the time i'm done with them my pen knife is sharper. makes a hell of a bloody shave 😉

Yeah that's about as long as they last for me. Sucks too since they're so damn expensive.
 
I shave daily, and will end up using the things for generally a few months before changing. I really don't notice a huge difference when they're dull as opposed to brand new; either way, it takes me at least two passes (one with the grain and one against) to get good results.
 
About every three weeks. But my kids lost it and I convinced myself to buy a Quattro because it had a free fog-free mirror for the shower. It's not as good as the M3. It grabs like crazy, the M3 just glides.

1) IT's green for Mach 3 Turbo

Who's the n00b now..

I shave once or twice a week depending on how I feel and I change them every 2 months..

I change when its getting a li ttle hard to shave and I need several more strokes for a clean shave.

Thankfully, a real man in this thread. I was reading all the "One cartridge lasts me 3 months" replies and was thinking the poster was going to talk about his underoos next.
 
I change mine about once ever 1-2 months
I shave almost every day
They get hella dull by the end. The quality of the shave goes down with time, but I don't really care as I am married. (by the time I see her in the afternoon, I've already got 5oclock shadow, new or old blade)

One thing I have started doing to has totally eliminated my razor burn...

splash a little rubbing alcohol on my face and neck after shaving. Used to burn like hell, but I hardly norice it anymore (kinda like when you first use Listerine, then later)
really used to wake me up

a real man? a real man has to shave every day, and isn't a p*ssy that he needs to change the catridge every week.
