Review: High quality! - WOW! I didn’t expect to be this impressed with a little reusable safety razor, but this one is truly something. It comes delightfully packaged in a reusable box with a mirror inside, as well as the replacement blades, which are thoughtfully and individually wrapped. It’s quite heavy! I actually prefer this as it tells me that the materials used were high-quality and worth my money. The craftsmanship is immaculate and there wasn’t a single defect in my package. It’s exactly as advertised. It’s very easy to use—just twist the bottom and the top will open, allowing you to either add or remove your blade, then twist it again to close it. I have sensitive skin, so I did buy this is hopes of lessening ingrown hairs. It’s helped a little bit. It doesn’t get worn down as quickly either, which is nice—it’ll save money in the longterm. If you’re a woman like me, and you’re looking for the cleanest, softest, and most smooth shave in the world, I would look elsewhere—safety razors just aren’t designed to shave the hair below skin level (which is why they’re good for sensitive skin). But it does give me a nice even shave, and that’s all I wanted. Would buy again!
Review: Smoooooooth face is what you get - So to start off, I had been using Dorco razors for the past 8yrs or so. While I love how they feel and how easy it is to use a standard safety razor, I figured there has to be a cheaper yet better alternative. Eureka!!! Old school double-edged safety razors. I asked my Dad about them as I know he used to use them back in his youth. He told me they would always cut him and that I would be nuts to start shaving with one in this day in age. So I took his advice and bought the Dorco's once again. After about another month or so, I got the itch to try a old school razor once again and had been doing research for some time on double-edge razors and how to use them, handling techniques, etc. I finally bit the bullet and got me a Viking Chieftain as from what I had seen, would probably be a good beginner old school razor. When the Chieftain finally arrived I was honestly marveled by the fit and the polish. It looks great in my hand and is very sturdy. Plus that shine screams that I'm a classy gent. Eh or so I thought. The handle while small does give me a lot of finesse into how I use the razor. Now onto the first shave. I had purchased a badger brush and got my Cremo Shave Cream that I had been using prior to the Viking. After I worked up too much lather and coated my face so much that I looked like a brown Santa Claus, I began to shave. For those out there that aren't sure about how to shave, don't do what I did and laugh so hard that you end up with cream all over the counter because you thought it was funny to see how much lather your face could actually hold. You should have enough on to coat your face, not create peaks of creamy white goodness all over the place and then decide to style it in various ways to amuse yourself. The shave itself was phenomenal. Granted the first blades I used were the mild (more flexible and not feudal Japan Katana sharp) ones that came in the box so I could get used to the feel and master my handling technique of the blade. I had reached out to the Viking team because I couldn't master the way of the blade and they promptly got back to me and let me know that I should be using the legendary 3-fingered hold so that I may glide the blade along my face. Also be sure to let the weight of the head do the work for you. Be sure to have it at roughly a 30-degree angle too. Short strokes work best. Don't be afraid to apply more cream if you have funky patches that you have to shave in multiple angles to get smooth. After about 2 weeks of this practice-until-perfection shaving technique I had at last mastered the way of the face blade. Not only is using the Viking relaxing when I shave as it gives me time to think, but I also have noticed that my skin is less prone to irritation as was the way of the Dorcos. My skin is like a baby's butt when I finish shaving and my girlfriend loves the smoothness. I shave roughly every other day and ALWAYS use a fresh blade each time. Also once you master using the blade, definitely upgrade to much sharper ones and I would even recommend a sampler pack so you can find which blades work best for you. As there are so many, the sampler packs will help you to figure out what you like and don't like. I am now particularly fond of the Wilkinson Sword razor blades because of this. I will definitely be buying another Viking product soon. Oh and don't forget to get a stand to show off your razor and badger brush. The looks you get from family and your lady will have you feeling like a daft gent in no time, especially when they ask you what you shave with. You just tell them that you went to the Viking School of Razor.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: how does this compare to the merkur razor?**
A: If you're referring to the merkur 34c , that is very mild in comparison to the chieftain, the Chieftain is very aggressive you have to apply almost no pressure when shaving but it is a very nice piece for the experienced shaver . It's on the opposite spectrum because I find the merkur 34 c to be a bit mild but it's great to use after a couple shaves with the chieftain, yeah but I wouldn't recommend it as a daily driver , mix it up with some viking blade adjustables

**Q: does anyone know where these are made?**
A: I just purchased mine. As of 2020, this model Chieftan is different from the BAILI bd179. It's 10 grams heavier, has a thicker base plate, and has 4 lather holes on each side rather than 2 oblong ones. That's not to discount the BAILI at all. I just preferred the heftiness of the Viking. And you can get the "Odin Obsidian Black and Gold" for just a few dollars more as it's currently on sale.

**Q: Where can I buy replacement blades?**
A: Any double edge razor will work.  I would suggest looking for a trial pack, they will give you several brands to try and you may get 3 to 5 blades per brand they ship you.   
It’s an easy way to try different blades to find the best match for you.

Amazon carries them, they are all over the internet, eBay, etc.   I got one that was like 6 dollars and I got about 6 different razor companies, that were all well known.  Good luck with your adventures in shaving!

**Q: What is the difference between the godfather and the chieftain razors? thanks ken from new smyrna beach fl**
A: The Godfather razor is a 3 piece razor and has a long handle and is really mild, The Chieftain razor is a 1 piece butterfly razor and is a little more of a aggressive razor... thanks from a neighbor Glenn T.  in Edgewater Fla,

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good quality razor that gives a great shave with a good quality blade
*by W***H on January 16, 2026*

The Vikings Blade Chieftain is a very good quality razor that is solidly made and has good heft. I bought the "Vintage Bronze and Ancient Dust" model to replace an old Gillette adjustable safety razor with the same twist open mechanism. The blade angle is very good and the razor opens easily for blade changes and cleaning. It comes nicely packaged in a box with a magnetic clasp and a box of Swedish-made Viking blades. The Viking blades are low quality and grabby. I suggest you just toss them or give them to someone you don't like. I tried one of the blades for a week and it wasn't good. I swapped that blade out for a platinum coated Feather blade and immediately got a smooth, clean shave with no grabbing. If you are new to shaving, do your face a favor and buy good quality blades like Feather. Don't buy into the nonsense about "beginner blades". Cheap, dull blades will frustrate you, cut you and not make shaving the satisfying experience it should be. Pair this handle with a good blade and you won't be disappointed.
