    All I have left that I've purchased that I'm waiting for is a cheap Rolls-Razor set that I bought mostly for the hone and blade (no handle), and a tube of simichrome. Simichrome is hanging out at FedEX smartpost - whatever that is - and the hone is still sitting in Melissa, TX, as "Acceptance". that's where it's been for five days :)

    From what little I've found on the web about Kronas, the gold versions were all first generation ('64-'65), and in the Bicentennial Executive sets. Doesn't make sense to me, Schick making a razor and only putting them in sets 12 years later (I'm probably wrong about this, too). But then reading about "Krona Gold Head double edge Schick razor 12M5 Date Code1976". From what I've gathered so far, Schick's "codes" had nothing to do with date of manufacture. I could be wrong, but there is little information about these things. Really frustrating. I got my info here.

    i got one too. The shave is more agreesive than I thought it would be. Definitely more aggressive than the Gillette super speeds.

    What kind of blades do you use in that Durham?

    I think they are proprietary blades. lol I most likely won't be using it.

    Ok. I read a post years ago by someone getting one to use and I couldn't figure out how in the world he was gonna do it.

    I think that tryablade.com has a blade compatible with the Durham Duplex - it's some sort of grooming blade?

    Lost two Segals and a Le Coq..but will be getting these. Done until August. Really.

    Another Bakelite Shake Sharp because you never know and Tom got my other one.

    An aluminum Apollo. Curiously, comes with two plates, one Techish, one short comb Newish.

    A Wardonia, pretty rare plated brass handle.

    In my defense these three came in a lot.

    A ragged but intact Rotbart. A nice replate candidate if I like the way it shaves. [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]
