Razor Blade lifespan

How often do you typically replace your razor blade? The pack of 4 I got say the pack will last you 13 weeks which is less than a month per blade if I'm understanding it correctly. I always go by feel rather than time and that could be up to 2 months as my hair are very fine and I don't need to shave absolutely every day

DE or Cartridge? A cartridge would last me about 7 shaves. DE blades I toss after the third but I could probably get 5 or 6 shaves. I have a coarse beard though.
