Viking Revolution Luxury Safety Razor Shaving Kit - Includes Double Edge Safety Razor, Stand, Bowl, After-Shave Balm, Pre-Shave Oil, Badger Brush - Safety Razor Kit

Let me start off that I hate shaving and I have really sensitive skin so shaving really irritates it, and I've had a beard for a long time, but my job requires me to shave once a year for my respirator certification. Everything in the kit is of decent quality, the pre shave oil and after shave balm are really nice and smell good. The razor itself has a decent weight and is comfortable to hold and use, the 10 pack of razors is good. The brush is okay but could be better I was having to pick out bristles in my lather. the bowl is good and helps make a good thick lather. The stand for the razor and brush is a nice touch. This is a really good price point for everything you get in the kit. Although I didn't use the shave shave soap, I used Porasso shaving cream instead off a recommendation from a friend. After using this kit it gave me a really close and smooth shave, and for the first time my skin isn't irritated after shaving, and I'll never use a cartridge razor again. The kit made something I rather dislike a nice enjoyable experience.

I wanted to make my 14-year-old son's first shaves a memorable and educational experience, and the Viking Revolution Luxury Safety Razor Shaving Kit was the ideal gift. He was hesitant about the old-school safety razor at first, but having the entire kit (razor, stand, bowl, brush, and aftershave) made it a great way to teach him the proper technique. The quality seems fantastic—everything from the razor to the stand feels substantial. This kit is built to last a very long time, and my hope is that it will serve as a cherished memory piece as he ages, marking the beginning of his journey into manhood.

I really liked the razor and other items that it came with. My only advice is to throw out the razors and buy persona. I have been shaving my head for years with a DE razor and have never torn my head up. In fact I can count the number of times I have cut my head on one hand in the years I have used. The razor is a bit aggressive but there is descent weight to let the razor do the work. Angle will take a bit to get used to. I was able to shave faster. No issues with slipping or grip. Cleaning was easy and didn't require loosening the butterfly to do it. Brush and bowl worked fine with soap. No issues to lather and is descently made. You don't need a big bowl to do a big lather. I see a couple reviews about the stand where they had issues. There is nothing wrong. The head does not sit on the stand. There is a second ring that is just below the stand that actually holds the razor. There are images of this. I see no issues. To clean your brush rinse and shake the water out flicking it in sink or tub. It will no longer drip after a few good shakes The preshave oil an after shave seemed to do a good job. Easy to apply and takes very little. All in all it is a good kit. Just swap the blades as they are very aggressive and abrassive. I have used feather as well but persona is my go to. Update. So after trying a couple more times, this razor definetly needs some rework. While I can shave faster, it isn't as clean cut. I have to go extremely slow and even then, because of the design, you will get irritation and possibly cut. I am still going to try a few more times just to see but will probably switch back to my merkur 34c. Just a better shave with less irritations and much quicker. Both have there pluses and minuses. But over all I prefer merkur so far. 1 star dropped do to the amount of irritation and cuts. Which I don't get with my other. Update 2 After a few more times, I have finally found the appropriate motion to shave without getting nicked. While my other razor needs slow longer drags, this one needs short and quicker but precise movement. I have had 0 cuts last 3 head shaves or razor burn. I have also found the weight of the shaver is a bit heavy and need to keep the razor from resting completely. This razor does seem to get closer than my other and do a slightly better job. I have readded the star.

I'll give my BLUF (bottom line up front) before I get in to the review: Who this safety razor kit is for: folks like me that are tired of paying for and getting their face cut up by cartridge razors, those that want it all in one kit and don't want to shop around and paying more or are concerned with mixing brands, and those, again like myself, who are new to safety razors and wanted to see what all the hype is about. Who this safety razor kit is NOT for: "aficionados" that buy anything at all with the expectation of near perfection and people that actually know what they are doing and could stand to spend a few extra bucks on shopping around for higher quality soaps, DE blades, brush, and razor itself. Overall, my perception of this kit was that of a nice ENTRY LEVEL kit into the world of safety razor shaving. Due to me being new to the art form, my review may be more desirable to those like myself that are tired of spending so much on cartridge razors and wanted to try safety razor shaving out for the first time and less desirable to those that are incredibly familiar with safety razors and the art of shaving with one (so keep your "you don't know what you're talking about"s to yourself). I was a little concerned with the handle being a bit too short for me to find comfortable but was happy to find it felt just fine in my hand when I used it. The brush was a totally alien concept for me to use relying on shaving creams up until this point, but I don't feel that I could ever go back. It's a good brush, and I thoroughly enjoyed using it. The soap has a pleasant, if subtle, scent and leaves a bit more to be desired for those looking for something that smells nice like myself. The pre-shave oil definitely is as it states. Though scentless, it works fairly well as a pre-shave in my opinion. The post shave balm works wonderfully to moisturize your face following a shave and kind of reminds me of the Nivea balm I typically use having a more sensitive face, but this stuff had a more "muted" scent. I don't have any complaints about the material of the stand, razor handle, and bowl are made of though I also do not have much to compare it against with this being my first safety razor kit. My ultimate concern came from my desire to have a close shave. Being in a job that requires a bald face, a close shave is really important to me as it is all or nothing. No unprofessional stubbles allowed. I was very pleasantly surprised with how close of a shave I got out of using the safety razor. Not only that, I had minimal nicks and irritation. Bear in mind that you definitely want to take your time using this razor, but I found that cutting down a 3 day stubble was less of a hassle than if I had used my cartridge razor! This is a wonderful kit if you are even just remotely interested in using a safety razor. I would give it a 5 if it had more smell to it, but the smell (or lack thereof) was my only complaint. I felt that the overall quality of the kit matches the price rather well considering that there are $34 badger hair brushes and $16 shaving soaps out there. I feel that I found my new favorite way to shave and I hope you find yours as well. Final recommendations: -Last minute morning shavers beware! This razor can and should take more time to shave with unless you are a wizard or are doing something more efficiently than I am. I get up fairly early and get ready for the day much earlier than most so it's not much of an issue for me. -Try different blades out if you can. I found through researching this method of shaving that different blades have different shaving qualities and you may find that a particular brand of blades just work better for you. I cannot explain very well why, again, due to being new to this method of shaving.

Fue un regalo y gustó

Como aficionado al afeitado clásico y usuario habitual de maquinillas de doble filo, decidí probar este kit de Viking Revolution por su presentación atractiva y la promesa de ser un “set de lujo”. Tras varias sesiones de afeitado, comparto aquí una valoración honesta y técnica para quienes estén considerando su compra. 🔧 Maquinilla de doble filo: Construcción metálica con buen peso y equilibrio. El cabezal sujeta bien la cuchilla, sin holguras ni desalineaciones, y ofrece un afeitado seguro y eficaz. Aunque no tiene las especificaciones milimétricas de marcas premium como Merkur o Rockwell, en la práctica funciona con precisión más que suficiente para un afeitado diario cómodo. Con cuchillas afiladas (he probado Astra SP y Feather), ofrece resultados limpios en dos pasadas. 🖌️ Brocha de tejón puro: Buena densidad y forma del nudo, con mango ergonómico. El pelo es natural, lo que implica un olor fuerte al abrirla (nada raro en brochas de tejón). Recomiendo lavarla con agua tibia y jabón neutro antes del primer uso. Tras el tercer lavado, el olor desaparece y la brocha se comporta de forma excelente: retiene agua, genera espuma con facilidad y tiene una sensación suave pero firme en la cara. 🧴 Aceite pre-afeitado y bálsamo post-afeitado: El aceite tiene una textura ligera, no grasa, y facilita el deslizamiento de la cuchilla, especialmente útil en zonas sensibles como el cuello. El bálsamo tiene efecto calmante, aroma discreto y no deja residuos. Ambos productos cumplen su función sin destacar por formulaciones sofisticadas, pero son agradables y eficaces. 🧼 Tazón y soporte: El tazón es de tamaño adecuado para espumar con comodidad, aunque no tiene base antideslizante. El soporte es funcional, mantiene la brocha y la maquinilla en posición vertical, lo que ayuda a conservarlos y mantener el orden. No son piezas de lujo, pero cumplen su cometido. 🎁 Presentación general: El kit viene bien empaquetado, con estética cuidada y mensaje claro. Ideal como regalo para alguien que quiera iniciarse en el afeitado clásico o mejorar su rutina sin entrar en gamas altas. No es un set profesional, pero sí una opción muy digna para uso doméstico. 📌 Puntos a mejorar: • La brocha debería venir prelavada o con instrucciones claras sobre el olor inicial. • El tazón podría tener base antideslizante para mayor comodidad. ✅ Lo mejor: • Relación calidad-precio muy equilibrada. • Componentes funcionales y bien pensados. • Ideal para principiantes o como regalo. ⭐ Valoración final: 4.5/5 Un kit completo, funcional y estéticamente cuidado. No es el mejor en cada categoría, pero como conjunto ofrece una experiencia muy satisfactoria. Recomendado para quienes valoran el equilibrio entre precio, presentación y rendimiento.

Très bien. Plutôt chic. Cadeau Très apprécié.

Das Set ist absolut spitzenmässig und sucht (zumindest in dieser Preisklasse) Seinesgleichen. Ich habe seit ca. 10 Jahren einen Vollbart. Mal mehr und mal weniger, abhängig von den Korrekturen während der Wachstumsphase oder immer wieder mal ausprobieren. Seit 15-20 Jahren rasiere ich mich ausschließlich mit Klinge und Rasierhobel und habe in dieser Zeit schon etliche Produkte ausprobiert. Das Set hier erfüllt endlich die Anforderungen, die eine ordentliche und - ja - auch zelebrierte Rasur so benötigt. Der Rasierhobel ist wertig, sieht gut aus, ist gut verarbeitet und der Rasurwinkel besser, als bei den Produkten, die ich zuvor hatte. Der Pinsel riecht anfangs etwas, liegt halt am Echthaar (Dachshaar). Was nach erstem Heißwasserbad und einseifen dann vergeht. Highlight ist für mich der After Shave Balm, der wirklich angenehm riecht und einen pflegenden Schutzfilm auf der frisch rasierten Haut hinterlässt. Fazit - absolut empfehlenswert.
