What makes you change a blade out

\n\nShawn, How often are you honing your straights?
\n\nSorry, I didn\'t even see this. I wasn\'t trying to ignore you. \nI really couldn\'t give you an accurate time or shave number. I switch between SE and straights with an occasional DE shave thrown in and usually only shave every few days out of sheer laziness. Plus i\'m just randomly picking a razor each time and I\'ve got somewhere around 50 or 60 to choose from. So I have no clue how many shaves are on anything. \nJust pretty much when it starts to tug, I either change the blade, or set it off to the side to be honed. \n\nIf I was to guess though, I\'d say probably about every 10 to 15 shaves I run them back over the finisher.
