Double Edge Safety Razor Blades, 50x Blades, Swedish Steel + Platinum Coated, Replacement Razor Blades & Refills (Mild & Gentle)

First of all I fit the description of these blades and do not need an aggressive shave. I’ve been using Astra blades with my two mild Vikings Blade safety razors (Godfather and Vulcan) and for the heck of it finally tried one of the blades that came with the razors. I will never go back. These Viking blades are everything they claim to be, and yes they last twice as long as Astra blades. I just dispensed of one today after 6 uses. It could have gone longer. Other blades I have tried always started tugging while going against the grain around day 3. Also there are some places on my neck that other blades could never shave without razor burn, until I tried these blades. No problem. These blades might be designed to be mild but they are sharp and stay sharp. It’s such a strange scenario, how they can be so sharp but with such mildly smooth performance. It’s difficult to explain because it’s usually the sharper the blade the more aggressive shave. This is pure comfort. They provide such a smooth shave that is such a sharp but mild profile that it’s almost like shaving with an expensive 5 Blade cartridge razor without the burn. Try these, such a great shaving experience and what a difference it is, and so worth the few extra bucks. 50 blades at twice the usage time = 100 blades. I have not had one nick or bleeder since I started using them. Used up all my free blades and had to order more. Now I understand why there was such high demand for them. I sure hope Vikings Blade continues to offer these incredible blades. They really are top of the line and well worth the money. Take the plunge.

When I bought my first Vikings Blade Chieftain safety razor, the shave was unbelievably close, smooth and comfortable. The razor came with five blades. These blades were a key ingredient in those marvelous first shaves. Since then (after those original blades were spent), I’ve been “chasing the blade.” I tried to find a similar blade that performed as well as those Swedish steel blades that came with the Vikings Blade Chieftain. Some blade brands came close in replicating that first wonderful shave. But, none hit the bulls-eye. That’s why I was delighted to discover that the folks at Vikings Blade decided to finally bring to market these original blades! I ordered immediately. On first use, they are everything I remember from that first shave! Made in the U.S.A. of premium Swedish steel, these blades are double wrapped (a really nice touch) and provide just the right amount of sharpness and smoothness. My skin borders on the sensitive side and these blades really give me a wonderfully close shave. But, if you have coarse hair, Vikings Blade suggests that these razor blades may not work for you. If you require a sharp blade that also has a silky smooth quality to it, then this is the blade for you! Beginners will love this blade (as did I when I first came back to wet shaving), due to it being just plain safe. And experienced wet shavers will appreciate it’s smooth, yet sharp quality resulting in a BBS three-pass shave. I’ve already used one blade in a vintage Gillette Ball End razor and my original Chieftain safety razor. Each gave me a close, smooth shave. (The Chieftain was much more efficient). But each razor, with the Vikings Blade razor blade installed, gave me a shave without nicks cuts or any irritation at all. I’ve used many different safety razors including double edge, single edge, and injectors. And in using those different razors, I tried a wide variety of razor blades. I can honestly say, these Vikings Blade razor blades are at the very top of my list! My new number one! They give me an exceptional shave. These blades, along with the Chieftain razor are what brought me back to traditional wet shaving! The folks at Vikings Blade say that these blades are good for 5 to 7 shaves. This means your daily shave is only pennies a day. Although I haven't used this first blade that many times yet (two shaves so far), I feel that I’m on track for a good five shaves. (I’ll update this review when I reach that point). Full disclosure: I’ve been a fan and daily user of Vikings Blade products for quite some time. I love their razors, brushes, shaving cream, and now, their razor blades. Am I biased? Yes. But only because I keep getting a magnificent result each and every morning I shave with their products. The Chieftain brought me back to traditional wet shaving. These blades keep me there! Welcome home, my son, again!

Old school razor blades. I used blades somewhat like this (of lesser quality actually) in my grandfather's old razor when I was 13 years old. Over the years I tried an electric shaver, single blade injection razors and the modern plastic razors that manufacturers INSIST on shoving 2,3,4 or 5 blades into, for "the closest shave". Because apparently we will believe ANYTHING ! These do nothing but clog up with beard hairs and irritate the skin ! Well, I just turned 71, and with age finally came wisdom (debatable, sure). I tossed my plastic junk razor that clogs tight with beard hairs and bought a Viking Razor. Old school style, old school fine craftsmanship and old school double edged razor blades that deliver a smooth shave with very sharp blades.. Use these blades and free yourself from the delusions of disposable plastic razor blades. Imagine how many of those things are in our landfills. It boggles the mind. Here's a chance to buy 50 fine razor blades that you can use in a razor that'll last you the rest of your life and even hand down to your grandson or granddaughter. Ladies need a great shave for their legs, you know.

My facial hair is very thick and dense and these blades worked I will say almost as good the old US made brand name blades that were still in drug stores 25+ years ago. I got 3 shaves out of one blade and then safely disposed of the blade because it was starting to get dull. As for a good value for my money I leave off one star because the value for a small pack of ten blades was a little high priced in my opinion. When they are on sale I might buy more. I recommend these in the red pack if you have sensitive skin or if you get razor burn just take your time.

These are the best blades I've ever used. I got these a month ago and I just started using the second blade. I got around 15-18 shaves (total for both sides) out of the first blade. I have sensitive skin and do get some irritation but it's nothing like it was. The shaves are constantly smooth and no razor burn. I highly recommend these blades to anyone.

These are the best blades I have found, but then again I have not tried too many and I don’t need to look any further. I bought a 10 pack of these and a 10 pack of their Cayenne blades back in Nov 2023. It’s now Dec 2025, two years on and I just started using number 16 out of the 20. I shave 4 times a week and each blade lasts me about a month and a half. Both types, the Cayanne and Mild, work great. I don’t think I have a preference of one over the other. I am going to buy a 50 pack and it will last me over 6 years! A real bargain in my book.

I bought a Henson Razor about a year ago - love the product! Since then, I have experimented with about 50 different brands of blades. I landed on the "Feather" blades, and they provided an extremely close shave and rarely cut my face, but I had an extremely rough time getting the blade out of its single tissue paper wrapper. It's glued to the blade, and I cut my fingers numerous times removing the blade from the wrapper. I tried the VIKINGS blade in the green wrapper, and they were very good, but did not shave as close as the "Feather" blades, however they come packaged in a double wrapper, eliminating cutting my finger when removing the blade. I decided to try the VIKINGS blade in the red box. I am now enjoying the best of both worlds - they provide a super close shave (as good or better than "Feather"), and they are easy to remove from the wrappers without slicing my fingers. I can't say enough about how well these VIKINGS -Red Box Razor Blades are working for me. If you are using a double edge safety razor, give these blades a try.

These work great. They are thin but works perfect. I shave in between going to the barber. These shave great!
