Schick Krona Chrome Blades

I was in a thrift store today and they had some 2 packs of Krona Chrome double edge blades for sale. The packages were dated 1968. I was wondering if anyone here has used these blades and if so what did you think of them? I look forward to your feedback.
 
Well since I didn't get any response I went a head and tried one out today and I was very impressed with its performance. Using my 40's style SS I got a 3 pass BBS shave with zero nicks or irritation. I would say this blade is about as smooth as an Astra SP and just a little bit sharper. I'm very glad I bought all 25 packs they had at the store. 50 very good blades for only $ 5.00.
 
Good deal indeed. I don't have any experience with Krona Chrome blades but it they shave anything like Schick Krona SS blades you did quite well.
 
I used the Schick Platinum blades exclusively until they were taken off of the market. As I recall they were fine blades. Too bad today's Schick DE blades aren't of the same quality.
