1. I find that I use Arko more than anything lately, and I've got MWF and MdC in the cabinet. I keep looking at a dozen stick purchase but what I have will last a year with daily use.

    FBs are nice razors but I don't get the market on them.

  4. I understand to a certain extent, however the prices are quite high. They were only made for four years where as the Slim and Black Beauty were made for longer periods of time. But then again they are not all that rare compared to a toggle. Now the toggle market makes sense. But you already know all this.
  5. The Kronas are awesome glad to see some other guys giving them a go! I use an Astra SP in mine and what a shaver it has become for me, i have a few Merkurs, Gillettes, and some SE's and this Krona hangs with the best of them! I bought 2 together on eBay and one was the older model with medal knob and the other the plastic, i have to say the older model is just a tad heavier and a little better feeling as far and quality. My co worker got the other one i had bought and he said it shaves amazing as well.
  6. Try it and never look back :happy088:

  7. Its definitely opinion based. But there is nothing built like a fat boy.
  8. Okay, go to eBay. There's a seller selling (seller selling sounds weird) Arko for $4.13 for 2-sticks with free shipping!
  9. This month, I am shaving with Arko, and my Krona..... an amazing combination! I think that the Krona is milder, but a better shave than the SuperSpeed I have.... YMMV

  10. Hay guys I picked up a puck if Arko and love it. Any suggestions for a good aftershave to go with the wonderful scent of lemon pezz?
  11. I do not get lemon pez or urinal cake, at least not anymore. I simply get soap. I have not opened it up yet but smelled it through the wrapper.

  12. I often pair Arko with RazoRock Don Marco, which smells like Orange Pez. They combine into a nice citrus pez pairing ;)

    It's a good combo for outdoorsy and casual times when you don't want to be too stuffy....

  14. It'll be a bit stronger when you open it, but I don't get urinal cake either. I do smell the lemon though. It then fades back to more soapy over time...

  18. Krona is a great razor. Shaves better than all my other TTO's. I'm a 3 piece kind of guy though.
    Love Arko !!
