Re: Schick Krona
Good deal James,
Yeah, it took me a couple times to figure things out, but smooth sailing after that. If you're used to a fatboy, the flatter head profile and lighter weight will feel a little unusual at first.
I noticed you used a Swede in that razor, which was a good choice. I shoulda asked if you had a Feather to try as well, since the shipping wouldn't have been that much more...heh. If you do have one, give it a shot after trying the Swede for a while.
I hope the Krona ends up fitting you well,
Martin
Oh, your SOTD mentioned the shave not being as close as what the fatboy provides. I agree with you there, which is why a sharp blade really helps tweak the Krona properly. I'm guessing your fatboy is set to #3 or above.
