 The Kronen resurrects a lethal fighting style once thought lost to the ages.

The Kronen is a pair of bladed Tonfas. They are the second of the fan-made weapon designs from DE's Community Melee Weapon Contest to be implemented[1], the first being the  Silva & Aegis.
This weapon can be sold for 5,000 Credits, it is also a requisite ingredient for  Boltace.

Trivia[]
This was the first Tonfa-type weapon in Warframe.
At 65,000 Credits credits, the Kronen has the most expensive weapon blueprint in Warframe.
The Kronen is one of the winning weapons from the fan-created melee weapon contest (preceding the  Silva & Aegis). Its design was submitted by the player Datareaper, who also inspired the creation of Clem.
Kronen is German for "crowns" or "coins".
When the Kronen was first released, it was unable to do wall attacks due to a bug. This was fixed in Update 14.8 (2014-09-24).
Likely named after the character Karl Ruprect Kroenen from the comics, and movie, Hellboy. In the movie, Kroenen wields swords that are essentially bladed tonfas.
