Wow, got my gold Krona today - I was very impressed by it. I had heard mentionings about the Kronas feeling a bit cheap and lightweight but I have to say it felt really, really good. Nice weight, solid feel and I love that handle! I'll post some piccies later
It's very purty and feels great! Really looking forward to trying it out. There's a little bit of dirt/dust but nothing that won't clean off easily.
The below copied from SOTD as I'm lazy - but man, this was a fantastic shave today. Wonderful razor - how come I didn't know about this earlier?! "Had a hands-down fantastic shave this morning with my gold Schick "Krona". This was my first time using a "Krona" and I am VERY impressed by it - quite frankly a "better" razor than many of my Gillettes. This razor might be the best kept 'secret' as far as quality razors goes and how their prices are reflected on online auction sites. Nice weight, wonderful handle and a rather mild but very effective head. "
