Got involved over the weekend in a discussion of Krona razors on this forum. During that discussion I realized I had not touched my Krona since August when the original broke and I began shaving again with my back up. Well thanks to another friend on a different board, I was finally able to obtain my gold Centennial Krona about a month or two ago. So today I decided to shave with it. It was like going home. I didn’t realize until halfway through the shave that I was totally an automatic once I felt the familiar Krona shape in my hand. 50 years with a razor will do that to you. The actual face and head scraping part of my shave used to take about five minutes on the face and about the same on the dome. Today I finished both in about four minutes. I don’t remember the specifics but I was truly on automatic. My old friend delivered a DFS on both head and face. I’m clean and refreshed and ready for the day!

A fantastic travel shave by Lake Tahoe. Lovely place to enjoy a morning shave.
Epic.


Greetings from Santa Rosa, CA
 
After a couple shaves where I felt I was taking one for the team, Shake Sharp Sunday makes me forget. Second shave on the same pair of Chinese Suneco blades I used last weekend (since I'm shaving my head that's the equivalent of @6 shaves on the same edge), just amazing. Smooth as silk - 1912 Magnum doesn't hurt - and more efficient than the R41/Voskhod I just shaved with. I'm buying 100.
