One Blade One Shave

Now years ago I used to watch Dad shave I think with the brown gillette blades and then the blues. One shave per blade and that was it if memory serves me right. Are there any blades manufactured to be used that way today. Sure I can throw away good blades but I was just wondering if there were any designed that way from the out-set, and made that way, cheap! Besides that I have trouble, stubborn I guess, knowing when to stop on a blade anyway. I usually end up pulling or something before it dawns on me to throw in a new blade. Jussssst wondering! Thanks.
 
I don't know of any that are manufactured specifically for one use but I do know that there are plenty out there that end up that way. After using blades for a while you should be able to gauge when a blade is about kaput. For me I don't stretch any blade more than 3 days. If they start to pull before the third day, they get chucked early. I would rather miss an occasional good fourth shave than force some subpar shaves.

Good luck.
