RJC2001 I never paid too much attention, I probably use one for a couple of weeks, easily, and shave my entire body every time I shower, which is most, but not all, days. In other words, they last a long time. I usually change it when it begins to pull a bit, I'm sure each is good for 10 body shaves. My body hair is much finer than face hair, so it seems I can use a blade on my body at least as long as one on my face, amazing isn't it. Also, probably the face is more sensitive. The only body hair I have that is very thick is on my pits, and chest (pubes, too, of course, but I don't shave them, except shaft and nuts). The rest, while dark, is pretty fine. I think those Venus cartridges are extremely good, especially the Divine ones. You can keep a spare in the shower, they are individually wrapped for that purpose.

I bought some Venus cartridges and tried one this morning. I was very impressed with it. It seems to have the very low friction blades like the M3 Power and the M3 Turbo. I haven't used the Venus in about 2 years. I forgot how good that handle is. I can grab that little step on the top to shave the rear delts. Very handy.

Another thing that surprised me was the price of the Divine cartridges, just about as much as the M3 Power.

The hair on my legs is not coarse, just average, so shaving gives very good results. It should give even better results after my second laser treatment next week. My beard used to be coarse, but after 5 laser treatments, it is 70-75 percent gone, and that's a lot of hair. The remaining beard hair is quite a bit finer. 3 weeks after my last beard treatment, the M3 is still pulling dead hairs out! Very cool! Now I can shave in a more reasonable amount of time.
