Vikings Blade Emperor Adjustable Safety Razor 

Thank you, John!

So did I :-)

Thank you, Mike!:) Have a great weekend!:)

My pleasure!:). Enjoy!:)

My pleasure!:) The emperor is a spectacular razor!:) It gives a VERY smooth shave.:) I love it.:)

Excellent and thanks for the kind words.:)

Thanks very much.:) The razor is wonderful.:) I also like my Crusader but can understand how it may not be for everyone.:) This razor, from the moment I pulled it out of its case, did not disappoint.:)

Razor is great!:) i think you're gonna like it alot.:) Very well built and, again, incredible heft.:) Really feels substantial!:) the shave oil is very nice. Not too thick and goes on easily with a bit of water on the face. Just be aware that some shaving oils (regardless of make) don't play nice with some (but not all) shaving soaps. In those rarwe cases, it's best not to do a face lather, but rather build the lather is a bowl and then paint it on.:)

Thanks for the tip on adjusting the razor. Appreciate it. Yes, I agree, it's quickly becoming my favorite razor too!

Thanks. I also noticed (on mine at least) that blades barely fit through the doors unless I go to the highest settings. I love mine. I nearly got the crusader way cheap, but noticed the weight and finish, and didnt care that it was more. still no regrets. also liking Cella

Thank you for confirming.:) Enjoy!:)

Thanks, Brian.:) Agree!:)

Rajan, I appreciate the kind words.:) The Vikings Blade Chieftain brought me back to the traditional wet shave.:) So yes, I hold the company and their products in high regard.:) I've had many a smooth and wonderful shave thanks to Vikings Blade!:)

Thank you, Stephen.:) I'm in love with this razor!:) The weight, the smoothness, etc. The nicest thing is that's it's TTO. the other adjustable razors, while nice, are two-piece. Really nice to simply twist to open, drop in a blade, and get on with the shave.:)

Thanks!:) Appreciated.:)

Yes. It has a very nice, competitive price point.:)

Excellent!:) Happy to make the birthday shopping experience a bit easier.:)

Ashley, thanks for the additional info. I mention the asymmetrical razor head in reviews, perhaps it was an oversight on this one. My apologies. But, thanks for a great breakdown on the feature. Let us know how the shaves go.:)

Hi, xaTASTEofCHAOSx. I recently did a video shave with the Emperor at: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-6i30jPbGih0.html I love this razor. You can use it to take advantage of the Asymmetrical razor head or simply use it as you would a regular DE razor. I also have pre de Provence but in the older container. I need ot use it again. Good stuff. Let me know how you like the Emperor. Enjoy!

@@MarkSzorady So I didn't want to wait until tonight to shave. Today I used the Emperor with a permasharp blade and the Cella shave soap. It was a hell of a nice shave. Very smooth and efficient! I still had to do some buffing and I believe that is just due to the permasharp. But it was still a very nice shave. The Cella does perform better with the Emperor so that is a big plus. I will continue using the permasharp with this razor until it gets dull before I switch to my GSB which I feel is going to give me "that shave". I did have quit a bit of feedback from my alum around my neck and upper lip, but no blood. Mark you ought to do a blade war with your Emperor. A permasharp vs Gillette Silver Blue and Cella for both. Have a great day.

@@xatasteofchaosx1457 Thaks for the suggestion. I need to create a file and start writing these down. Very glad to hear you had a great shave with the Emperor.

That '47 Aristocrat sounds awesome! I have my late father's Super Speed and it's close to my birth year.:) Thanks for the kind words. The Augustus is beautiful. I had Shave this morning with the Emperor razor, Schapenmelk shave soap, Vikings Blade pre-shave oil and a Dorco Prime blade. A beautiful three-pass BBS shave! A great way to start the day!

John, I simply turn the adjustment collar all the ay up to 9 and twist open the doors. This insures the doors are fully open. After every shave, I remove the blade and pat dry (I don't rub) and then with my towel, gently remove the excess water form the inner areas of the razor head and towel off the handle, etc. I then replace the blade and leave the doors open and hang on my razor stand. After I'm done with the after shave and mopping up the counter (I tell ya, I'm like a labrador in a water dish sometimes!), I then close the razor doors and return to the razor stand. That's it!:) With all my TTO razors, every so often, I'll get some mild detergent and do a cleaning to remove any build up (if that). But, for the most part, as long as I do a clean up after every shave, the razor stays neat and clean.:) HTH.:)

Thank you!:)

Hi, JAKESTEED. Please let us know how it works for you.:)

After a couple years, which did you end up settling on? Viking emperor Meiji, Parker variant? Another one?

I realize Meji it's an version of fat chrome similarity just meji version colour LOL

Thank you, John.:)

Yes, Vikings Blade did a top-notch job on the razor, case, etc.:)

Have you tried vikings blade's web site directly? vikingsblade.com/

The Crusader does not have numbers. Which is better? I like them both. It all comes down to whether you want numbers or want to be more free-wheeling.:) Really, both are great. Perhaps I'd give the edge to the Emperor due to added weight and thicker handle. But, then again....:):):) Hard for me to decided due to the two different approaches the razors offer.>)

J. R. It’s a disclaimer that all manufacturers should make. As far as I know bronze, gold, copper plated razors often age after a few years and start looking like a vintage razor. The process becomes faster if you constantly leave them in soapy water and don’t have a habit of drying them off. Depending on how you look at it, it could be a unique selling point.

Hello J.R., I am the product designer of the Emperor razor. The cognac coating is very durable according to our multiple tests over half a year. However, being a brand new colour on the market (I humbly think we may be the first ever to release this colour on a razor), I need to ensure that customers will have the best experience with our razor by giving it proper maintenance - just in case. Chrome on the other hand, has been tested over many decades so there's no need to write that. Hope it helps. Tristan of Vikings Blade

@@vulliongroupau2237 where is this Emperor razor manufactured these days?

I have both as you may know.:) And I have a scale, so I did some razor weigh-ins.:) The Variant weighs in at 3.95 ounces (112.1 grams) and The Emperor comes in at 4.66 ounces (132.1 grams). Additionally, to give a bit more perspective, the Merkur Futur weighs in at 4.21 ounces (119.4 grams). When I first took hold of the Variant, I thought it had more weight than the Futur. Obviously, I was wrong. But, by comparison, when I first held the Emperor, I immediately knew it had more heft. Yet it still felt quite streamlined even though it's a fat-handled razor. I think it may have to do with the overall design, shape, and balance of the razor. To be sure, you know you're holding a fat-handled razor. But it feels absolutely perfect given its size and weight. The Emperor feels wonderful in the hand. One of the big differences in feel, IMHO, is the knurling pattern on the handle. Like it's cousin The Crusader, The Emperor has the perfect knurling pattern for its size and weight. It compliments the size/design and gives the wet shaver a very firm and assured grip. It aids and allows the razor's weight to do all the work during the shave.:) Whereas, if the Variant were larger, heavier and thicker, with the same knurling pattern it currently has, I don't think it would quite work. (I could be wrong). So, I'd say for size and weight, each razor has the correct knurling pattern. It really comes down to what you want...either a Fat-handled TTO razor (which is a wonderful throwback and homage to the Gillette Fatboy - prized among wet shavers) or a two-piece razor with a tight knurling pattern and little less weight. Since getting The Emperor, I have yet to use the Variant (or Futur). I keep reaching for The Emperor (and Crusader). The Emperor/Crusader give me a smoother shave and well, it's gotta be the knurling pattern.:)

So you’d say the emperor shaves smoother and less aggressively? Having trouble deciding between that and the Parker variant time to upgrade from the Walmart Van Der Hagen

@@josephblurton3793 The Emperor gives a very smooth shave. I used it this morning (due to your comments/questions) and did a three-pass shave. The third pass was at setting three using the straight bar. A real nice cleanup to a shave that was done in two passes. But, that third pass was for enjoyment and got things a bit smoother.:) A great shave. Six hours later as I type this and still a smooth result.:) So perhaps it comes down to asymmetrical razor head or symmetrical razor head. Knurling. Weight. TTO or two-piece.

Yes, I use a safety razor to shave my head. I tend to use whatever razor is on my counter from the morning shave. However, lately, I've been using my Vikings Blade razors for my morning shaves this week.:) (So, yes, I've used the Vikings Blade Chieftain and their adjustable razors for head shaves.) Last night, I used the Chieftain Jr. and found that it gave me a really nice head shave. I tend to favor mild razors and the Chieftain Jr. is milder than the regular Chieftain. And I like a neutral to mild razor when doing a head shave (Chieftain is rated neutral, Junior is rated mild). While I like the Chieftain for head shaves, I have to give the nod to the Junior due to it being a bit more milder and my scalp skin being a bit thinner on top.:) It did a really nice job. The handle was long enough for getting the back of the neck and the doors locked in place nicely. (Although, when head shaving, and throughout the process, I always check the blade alignment and razor head to make sure things are secure whether it be a three-piece, two-piece, or Twist-To-Open.) I've used he Vulcan, as well. This is long handled version of the Chieftain. Again, the longer handle is nice for doing the back of the neck.:) A word about the Emperor and Crusader Adjustable razors: I use these for head shaving, too. I like that I can adjust to a milder setting and dial it up if I don't feel enough of the blade. But, not too much that it becomes overly aggressive. The Crusader's long handle works nicely. The only time I don't use a safety razor to shave my head is when I've had some sort of mishap from low door frames, etc. Every once in a blue moon, I bump my head and it might result in a bruise or cut. This last July I put a nice gash on my dome by not ducking low enough through a shorter door frame. Ouch! I was relegated to using an electric razor for several weeks (I shave my head twice a week) and then moved to a cartridge razor for several weeks more. THEN, I was finally able to get back to a safety razor after things were healed up. I've found that a safety razor gives me a cleaner head shave than both the cartridge and electric razors. Cleaner and closer. Again, I tend to favor milder razors and these work well for me when doing a head shave. A good shaving cream is key, though. When doing the head shave, I like shaving creams that give more slickness rather than cushion. HTH.:)

Rich, it's not glaringly different, but when it comes to sensitive areas it helps. otherwise, it can be used just like a regular DE.

@@MarkSzorady Thank you 👍

@@richp.738 My pleasure.

it is my understanding that it does not.

@@MarkSzorady does that (anti-misalignment) popert affects shaving experience and what could male blade misaligned when installing it?

Two completely different razors. The Godfather is a mild razor whose razor head is based on the classic Gillete Tech razor. The Emperor is an adjustable razor with a dual head. They shave differently. I'll use the Emperor for my daily shave. the dual hed allows me to fine tune the shave as i go. The adjustment allows me to turn up the aggression if I'm using amild blade or turn down to a milder setting. But for those times that I need a mild shave that is set at one level, I'll go with the Godfather or Chieftain Jr. The Godfather also has the advantage of enclosing the ends of the razor blade. A nice feature. It means won't accidentally tag myself when flipping from one side to the other. I appreciated that when first starting out with the wet shave. both the Emperor and Chieftain Jr. expose the end tabs. Not a deal-breaker, just a different razor head design. Again, personally, I like when the end tabs are enclosed.:) Also, the Godfather's shave can be deceptive. Sure, it's a mild razor, but if I do three passes and use a sharp blade (think Feather), I get a beautiful BBS shave.:) Now that you've brought it up, I'm setting aside the Godfather for tomorrow morning's shave.:) Again, two different razors with different designs and two different ways to approach the wet shave. It all depends on how you wish to approach your shave. If you're leaning towards doing a little bit of safety razor collecting, then you probably have your answer.:)

@@MarkSzorady so im guessing i should return the godfather and get the emperor. I like how u can change settings on the emperor. so the godfather only has 1 side u can shave with. Its not a 2 sided razor.

@@rderubeis The emperor is adjustable and has a dual head. "Adjustable dual head with multiple aggression micro-settings, suitable for both normal and sensitive skin" The dual head means one side is going to be a bit more aggressive than the other side in addition to adjusting it. Emperor razor: amzn.to/2YZvCbt

My apologies. I don't have that particular stand, so I cannot say with any certainty.

@@MarkSzorady 👍❤️

Yes! In fact, I used the Emperor to shave my head the other day.:) Planning on doing a video.:)

Hi, Pablo.:) The adjustment dial is smooth and continuous. No clicking or stopping.:)

Thank you so much Mark!!👍🏾

@@pablo64073 My pleasure.:)

Hi, Dark Side83. Sounds like it's just a reset issue. Here's the instructions from Robert at Vikings Blade. (He answered this question on their amazon product page): "This phenomenon is not a defect and can be fixed easily. It will happen to all adjustable razors including the legendary Gillette Slim Adjustable - when the user forgets to set the baseplate to maximum aggression and then open the butterfly doors. The instruction leaflet says only open the butterfly doors when the aggression is set to max. Perhaps you missed that part. Not a big issue! This can be reset easily. First, turn the adjustment knob so that the knob is at the lowest position (maximum aggression). Then, reset the baseplate as instructed in the below video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Ou2A29U4qKk.html Baseplate will now drop back to where it should be. Then you can now turn the adjustment knob back as usual :) If it doesn’t work, try reset the baseplate again a couple of times. This is something that all springload adjustable razors will experience- but it’s an extremely easy fix."

@@MarkSzorady thanks mark

My pleasure.:)

Thanks.:) The Emperor is an adjustable razor. The Chieftain is not. It depends on what you want. Are you just starting out or an experienced shaver?

@@MarkSzorady No really, I have been using Parker 99R for almost 4 months but I see Vikings razors have very good recomedations and I want to try and compare

@@oscarcuadrado8600 Well, it's hard to compare a standard razor against an adjustable. However, I can certainly recommend the Emperor. It's a beautiful adjustable razor. But, if you're not ready for an adjustable, then give the Chieftain a try. The 99R is a long-handled razor, so you may want to try the Vikings Blade Vulcan which has the same razor head as the Chieftain, but is also a long-handled razor.

@@MarkSzorady Thanks for your recommendation Mark.

@@oscarcuadrado8600 My pleasure. the good news is, because the traditional wet shave is exploding in popularity, there are so many new razors/products from which to choose!:) With so many choices, it can be a bit of a challenge.:) Actually, a nice problem to have!:)

Are you speaking of the cutting edge of the blade or the blade ends? If it's blade alignment (cutting edge), try a couple of different blades. When blades are mass produced, there may be a variation in size..a slight variation. Some blade brands may be thicker than usual or sometimes the rail hole is slightly larger than what it should be. Just a smidgen. This can cause the blade to move around inside the head before the doors are closed. But, so far, I've not had any alignment issues. the blade ends might be uneven due to the rail hole thing, etc. Vikings Blade has some really terrific customer service. Maybe snap a photo or two to show them the issue.

@@MarkSzorady Absolutely the best customer service turns out that it's the feature of the head where one side is more gentle than the other just wanted to make this comment so if anyone is reading this the razor is fine it was my lack of knowledge

@@deluxeshaves9958 Yes! My sincere apologies! I updated my description to include this information. In my excitement to get this video posted, I forgot to mention this point. An oversight on my part. The sculpted comb and straight bar on the Emperor are not as prominent as they are on the Crusader. So, it is easy to overlook. However, I had been using the Crusader all week prior to getting the Emperor. I must have simply fallen into the pattern of using this type of razor without really knowing. Muscle memory, so to speak? I had a shave this morning with the Frosted Chrome Emperor and did a three pass shave at 6, 4, and 2. Again, I naturally started out with the sculpted comb and went about my shave flipping to the straight bar on areas of the face and neck that needed a bit more mild approach. It was automatic for me.:) A nice feature, IMHO.:) But, again, my sincere and earnest apologies. Sometimes I'm the kid who excitedly tears open the Christmas package and starts playing with it not realizing batteries need to be installed.:)

@@MarkSzorady It's all good brother!!! keep up the good work i am sooo looking forward to post a video up about it thanks for the info

@@deluxeshaves9958 Excellent! Subscribed!:)

Hi, DirtyOrr#4. You best bet is to get blade sampler: amzn.to/2HjJs5y You can get a wide variety of blades and then figure out which work best for you and your shave.:)

@@MarkSzorady thanks i was looking into that as well! Covers almost all of them, is the blade you use here more aggressive style like a feather? And also have you had any experience with the Parker brand of blades? Thanks again for the reply!

@@Orr_s Featehr blades, for me, are somewhat aggressive. I only use them in my Vikings Blade Godfather Stonehenge. the razor is mild enough to tame this blade. Currently, I like the Lord Platinum blade: amzn.to/3keSUWp There are others I like, but I appear to be reaching for this one more often.:) I'm sure this will change.:)

@@MarkSzorady awesome thanks! Last question is whats the block you use at the end of the shave. Is this an aluminum based block? And used to close up cuts or such? Not much places to find info on the traditional wet shave method but its fascinating me and im going down the rabbit hole full force! Lol...the viking emperor just came in today hopefully it works out well and i figured the adjustability will work good for a beginner DE razor user like myself.

@@Orr_s Yes, it's an alum block. I use it every day. Very helpful info here: www.executive-shaving.co.uk/alum-block-a-guide-on-how-and-why-to-use Also, some folks question its use....Interesting discussion here at B&B: www.badgerandblade.com/forum/threads/does-alum-block-cause-aluminum-poisoning.144613/ Again, I use it every day.:) A gamechanger for my shave.:)

Rich, at a 1 setting, I can go againt the grainonthe corners of my mouth with no problem. so, I'd say it's super mild but still offers some minute blade feel. TBH, I haven't recently shaved with it at that low a setting. I'm going from memory. You've given me a good reason to break it out and have a shave. I love the razor!

@@MarkSzorady Thanks. I think I'm gonna pull the trigger on it. Been a while since I used an adjustable bc the heads are too clunky for my trouble spots but this head seems pretty maneuverable and I really would like to have the kind of flexibility in my shave only an adjustable can offer. I've been so impressed with VB but am always left wanting just a little more. The Godfather head is amazing but the handle shape is limiting when I don't have the time or energy to use a lot of finesse. Chieftain Jr. is fantastic- just wish it were a little heavier. Chieftain 5bc is my current champ for 2 pass shaves but it's slightly too aggressive for 3 passes on my skin. Hoping the Emperor will be, as the name suggests, an end-all be-all. High expectation, to be sure, but if anyone can meet it I think VB can. Thanks for your help.

@@richp.738 My pleasure. The Chieftain 5 BC and Emperor share the same razor head platform.

@@MarkSzorady Deal: Sealed lol

@@richp.738 👍

Which Crusader do you have? the Original or the Frosted Chrome? the difference being the Emperor and Frosted Chrome Crusader have numbers on the adjustment dial. The Emperor is thicker, heavier and a bit shorter. The razor head is identical to the one on the Crusader. The handles of each give you a different shave.:) Frankly, if you're into collecting razors, it's a nice addition for sure.:)

@@MarkSzorady I have the frosted chrome crusader, I actually went with that version just for the numbers because it was my first adjustable and the numbers made it seem slightly more consistent for someone that isn't used to adjustability. Thanks for the reply, knowing that the heads are identical I'll hold off on the emperor for now. I'll eventually end up with it but I'll buy something a little farther away from the crusader next maybe a godfather, I love the baili 191 I got as a loner.

@@tatsuhirosatou5513 Okay. You may want to look at he Chieftain Jr. Nice and mild.:) Very robustly built.:) Great price.:) amzn.to/2NO17n3

Sorry to hear about the broken razor but, in a way, good news!:) The Emperor is a terrific razor. Very well built, and terrifc weight and heft.:) Feels just great in the hand.:) And, as I failed to mention in the video, it has an asymmetrical razor head which gives you a bit more bite on one side than the other. Because I've been using the Vikings Blade Crusader adjustable razor for some time (which has an asymmetrical head, as well), I naturally fell into using the Emperor this way and failed to mention this feature in the video. Also, I had a stellar shave this morning with it! Tabac shave soap, Dorco Premium blade and three passes at 6, 4, and 2.:)

The Emporer is asymmetrical, the Crusader is asymmetrical. I think the listing is a bit off, perhaps, because Vikings Blade does a multi-product page. They show all their adjustable razors on the same page. The block of information to the left probably needs to be updated. It used to pertain only to the Crusader. Now that the Emperor razors have been added to the page, they may have to update that block of info so it pertains to, and distinguishes, all products listed on the page. But again, The Emporer is asymmetrical, the Crusader is asymmetrical.

Ok, thanks that’s even better. How does the fire mare compare to all other synthetics?

@@thelonelyranter5223 Actually, check that answer. The razor head is Asymmetrical, so to speak. But not overly so. One side is straight, the other side is sculpted. An oversight on my part. My apologies. I was so excited to shave with this razor and get the video posted, I simply overlooked this. It really is not as visually pronounced as it is on the Crusader, IMHO. However, I've been shaving with it as a symmetrical razor and getting great shaves!:) Now seeing their is a difference, I'll be adjusting my approach. My sincere apologies for the error. The Fire Mare is quite different from other synthetic brushes. I had to do a double take with the Fire Mare because I thought I was using a eal badger brush. That is the main difference. It's synthetic, but feels real.

Mark Szorady no need to apologize!

@@thelonelyranter5223 thx.:)

Well, I'm preparing a video where I weigh various razors. I can tell you that the Emperor weighs in at a whopping 4.67 ounces. That's head and shoulders above anything else I've tried. The weight and heft is wonderfully balanced and feels quite substantial and controlled in the hand. With this heft, the shave is simply effortless. The weight of the razor, coupled with the dual head (which allows you to tune your shave even a bit more) gives you a really smooth shave, IMHO.:) Having said this, I have both the MingShi and a couple of Gillette Slims. My MingShi is actually called the QShave. Same razor, different brand name. My QShave is quite good, but it does lack the extra weight I've become accustomed to. And the blade alignment is ever so slightly off. Not deal breakers, to be sure. A nice razor. Some wet shavers have reported that the their MingShi/QShave razors have glaring blade alignment issues. Mine does not. However, at $12.00, what have you go to lose? If interested in shaving with a Merkur Futur, the MingShi/QShave could be a good test drive to see if the size, shape, geometry, etc. is a good fit. A Futur is upwards of $75.00 for a chrome plated model and $114.00 for gold. With a MingShi/QShave, chances are pretty good that you'll get a razor that works well and gives you a fine shave.:) If not, you’re only out 12 bucks and not 75.:) As for the Gillette Slim, I think every wet shaver needs to get at least one of these in their shave toolbox. (And if your interest in wet shaving is growing in the direction of collecting, etc., you’re going to have MANY razors.:)) The Slim is a terrific razor, no doubt. It’s also nostalgic, cool, and a big part of wet shaving history. But $25.00? Well, if you can find one in good condition for that price, you're quite lucky. I've seen the price for the Gillette Slim climb as the traditional wet shave explodes. On Ebay, generally speaking, a Slim in good condition is $35.00 to $45.00. In excellent condition, they come in at $60.00 and up. If we were having this discussion three years ago, chances were good that you could get the same Slim, in excellent condition, at a lower price. Now, the landscape has changed and I think sellers know this. This is not to say that you cannot find a Slim at the price you quoted. You can, if you look. I’d also encourage you to visit yard sales, estate sales, etc. Chances are very good that you’ll find a Slim in good condition at a reasonable price. The question is simply, WHEN? You can purchase, right now, brand new, the Vikings Blade Emperor. A high quality, heavy weight, fat handled, adjustable razor built exceedingly well from premium materials at an affordable price point which will last for years to come and give you exceptional shaves, IMHO.:) Regardless of which path you choose, the bottom line is, it’s a great time to be doing the traditional wet shave! Vikings Blade (and others) offer so many choices! You’re bound to find a razor that suits your wallet and person.:)

Thanks for your excellent explanation. I look forward to any vids comparing shavers. I have both the QShave and Slim (ranging from $80 to $22)... Might try this new Vikings... hobby or addiction....Cheers@@MarkSzorady

@@talega1 My pleasure and thanks for viewing and posting a comment.:) Appreciated.:)

talega1, I purchased the MingShi and I had a very bad experience with it. Whatever material the screw is made of that handles the "adjustment," it doesn't like my well water. After just a few weeks, the razor gradually got more and more difficult to "adjust." Now, it won't rotate at all. I saw a video online about how to take the MingShi (Q-Shave) apart, but I couldn't do that. I'm hoping there will be a copycat of the Emperor for a lower price.

I have had some issues w Gillette adjustables and well water losing the 1/4 turn. Well for yours, have you tried bathing it in very hot water with dish detergent....repeat x3. Put 1-4 drops of mineral oil down the tray where the spring/adjuster sits.@@michaelzoran

Hi Brett, I believe Mark reviews a lot of other brands as well and Vikings Blade is just a small part of his huge collection. If you watch his videos on other brands and products, I think you will see the same unmistakable enthusiasm!
