I don't really keep track of blade uses, especially the GEM ones cause they're good for a while. I just change them when it's time, and it's time! Noticed today it's feeling a bit dull. New blade nex time. This one has been in well over a month, and I use my GEM razors for about 2/3 of my shaves, so it probably has around 30 uses.
