I do the same. I bought a pack of ten blades several years ago. Must be more than five. Very expensive. I think I am still on the first blade. Perhaps it is the second, but it has been so long I surely can't remember changing blades.
When the blade starts to skip a thread or two quite consistently, I just cut each line twice right away or pull the fabric away to see if it is cut. Haven't had a lot of problems. Most of the time it cuts great.
