What flints do you use?

After using several different flints, I'm finding out that my flintlock likes Rich pierce flints and tom fuller gray English flints. I can usually get around 10 shots with RP flints before I have to sharpen them and I get around 6 or 7 shots with the gray English flints before I have to sharpen those. What flints do some of you guys use and how many shots can you get before you have to sharpen your flints?
