Andrew, with the "6" showing that is the highest aggressive level you are shaving at. If the "5" was showing then you would be at level 5 and so forth.

Do you have a Rockwell?

Thanks Andrew!

I have heard from Perry, but not Rick. Given the state of things, you always want to at least know that folks are ok.

You, too Joe!

It is OK Chris! You been tending to what you need to do. Have a great day my friend!

Thanks, Charlie. I have GOT to get my BAD under control...Dr. Mrs. Primo is starting to count brushes.

Great shave Gary and an interesting soap.

Merci, Danny-boy!

I finally caught up on reading this month's thread...it really does build up fast. Great shaves so far everyone!

This morning, I went to vote and took my son with me so he could cast his vote for the first time ever. He's been with me many times during his lifetime, but today, he got to use his own machine. He turned 18 last month, but since GA allows registration when you're 17.5 to ensure that you're official when election day rolls around, he was excited and ready to go today.
We were pleasantly surprised that there was no waiting line at our polling location, so we were able to get in and out fairly quickly.

On to the shaves...
I've been using the Schick Krona the past three days, with each one being better than the previous day. One thing I have noticed is that I am not yet able to really tell when I should stop turning the handle knob when clamping down the blade. There just doesn't seem to be one particular "spot" that feels best. Hopefully, I will figure it out soon. All three shaves with this razor have been DFS+ level and only a small bit of lower neck irritation appeared after Sunday's shave.

Watch out, Blair! I sent Charlie a similar message. I now have some nice vintage Swiss winders and a watch tool kit to play around with...be warned.

Glad you got a better result today! Have a fine day Jason!

Great shave and sound like you are getting the Katana dialed in. I have the same head I got in a while back but I have not shaved with it yet. May have to give it a test run Friday. Take care Joseph.

It's the only time that BAD is actually good.

I do have a Rockwell 6C in gunmetal finish. I guess the better way I should have asked the question is this: If I want to shave at the R6 level, should the 6 be showing on the bottom. It is a bit confusing. To me, it seems it should be facing upwards where you see it loading the blade.

Great shaves, pics and setups Andrew!

Krona shave are awesome! Great shave and picture Andrew.

If you want to shave at 6 then 6 needs to be showing. It is a little confusing.

Thank you, Joe!
