Thank Heavens, I thought it was just me. I now have 3I have to say Rocket HD as I own 4. Well, you never know when one might go off.
I like the black beauty and the flair tip too but it's HD all the way for me.

Tomorrow morning I'm going to shave with another razor that I've never used before. It may be brilliant, we'll see. That's the fun of it. It sure looks pretty

After a few days using the Ikon SB my preference remains with the R89 on the ATT handle. May be it is my skin type, but its feels so much comfier and I feel more at ease with it. The Ikon is great in every respect, but I cannot get the same quality of first pass for some reason.
May be when I have finished the aluminium handle I am working on then the Ikon might be more at home. I shall see
May be I am just a awkward bugger?.....................My wife thinks so

When I want a mild shave I go for the R89, otherwise it's a toss up between the ATT S1 head or the R2 head on the Kronos handle.
Not yet found my perfect razor yet, but not actively looking.
I have a small number of razors, Gillette Slim Adjustable, Gillette Slim Twist, 7 o'clock open comb, Gillette open comb, Gillette Tech, Russian Super Adjustable, a razor made by a company in Blackpool (forget the name for now...) and a razor made by a company in Manchester.
I use all of them from time to time, the state of my face, pre-shave, usually determining which one will be picked.
I do fancy a modern razor though, but looking at the cost of the ones I fancy I'll hold off, although the draw of a modern slant is getting stronger by the month....

I hope this doesn't jinx it, but I think I have found my perfect razor in the Hone 15.

My favourite razor is my birth year Black Beauty. Trouble is I don't know if/when I'll see it again...
(It's taking a rather lengthy 'Spa break', but that's another story...)

I keep thinking I've found the best in the new ones (Standard, ATT, Hone, Blackbird, Seygus, Ikon, RazoRock etc. at various times), but just when I suppose I have, along comes another. Apart from SEs, I'm hoping for great things from the Fine plastic slant.
But then I go back to my old Gillettes and the like, and renew my love affair with them. Never a dull moment (just some dull blades from time to time).

Schick Krona definitely. I could buy five more of them just as an insurance policy
