Because it is gradual I don't even think about it until it starts missing threads. Blades are the cheapest part of this expensive hobby, don't know why we fight changing them so hard.
Same here! I dither about, pressing harder and going over more than once. Then, when I finally change the blade, the difference is astounding. And I KNOW this will be the case. I buy large packs of the blades on Amazon, so they aren't too bad per blade - but I do it every single time.
