Israeli Personna Red Blades: How many shaves??

the third's a little rough, so I toss after 2. I've gotten the touch with the feathers that came with my feather ss, however, so i'ma gonna switch:tongue_sm
 
Reds are my favorite blades! I can comfortably get six shaves out of one and could probably stretch it longer if needs be, but so far I haven't tried. Most other blades I only get three shaves.
 
1.....actually I don't know how long they'd be good for. Since they're only 10 cents a piece, I use a new one every shave. I have a fairly heavy beard and I figure why not spoil my face with a new blade every time...

I don't go quite that far, but I do toss the blade after three comfortable three-pass shaves. I think I paid $12 for 100 of 'em, so at three shaves, I've gotten my money's worth.
 
The Israeli Personna Red Blades provide a smooth comfortable shave that is effective but also forgiving. I think the Astra SP's are sharper for about the same money. I like both. I get about three shaves out of each.

There are several sharper blades out there and I can't use any of them (they turn my face into hamburger). The Reds are a very forgivable blade.
 
So far, so good! I have gotten 6 3 pass shaves out of them and and still going! Then again, my beard isn't that thick. How do these compare to Iridiums?
