Collection: Blades and Care

Kronos shaving soap, and everything a shave needs before and after the blade, sits in one place. The Double-Edge Razor Blades are platinum-sputtered to a 13N edge, so they cut level with the skin instead of below it. Packs run from five blades to fifty. They fit any safety razor, Kronos or otherwise, with no cartridge lock-in. Each side of a blade cuts independently, so one blade is good for four to seven shaves. At twenty blades for £10, that works out to roughly ten pence a shave before a blade dulls enough to swap.

Before the blade, soften the hair with the Sandalwood Shaving Cream or the Aloe Shaving Cream for reactive skin. Both are free of alcohol, petroleum, and sulphates. Or build a denser lather from the Sandalwood Shaving Soap, whose glycerin draws water into the lather to hydrate the skin the blade glides over. It is sized to its own bowl in the Wooden Bowl with Sandalwood Shaving Soap. Softening the hair before the blade arrives is most of what prevents razor burn, the job a lathered soap or cream does.

After, the Sandalwood Aftershave Balm or the Aegean Citrus Aftershave Balm settles the skin with witch hazel and no alcohol. The Sandalwood Pair puts soap and balm together in a single scent, so the routine smells the same start to finish.

A pack of double-edge razor blades or a tub of shaving soap or shave cream carries the same 100-day return window as everything else Kronos sells. Packs run from five blades to fifty, so a single order can match a fortnight's shaving or most of a year, without a second delivery in between. Each pack ships in the same plastic-free box as the razor itself. Orders that reach £50 qualify for complimentary UK delivery, and anything smaller has its delivery cost worked out at checkout.
