Vikings Blade Chieftain DE razor revisited. Dr. Selby Shave Soap, Rich Man Shaving Brush & Sauvage.

Trying out the Vikings Blade Chieftain Razor again in the rotation. It’s been a few years since I tried this entry level, mild razor. Also taking a quick look at a few accessories from Yaqi, including razor stand and portable shave bowl.
From their website-
The Chieftain Safety Razor
The original patented Chieftain razor
Time tested, perfect all-rounder
Best of the Best award for 7 consecutive years
Lightning fast 5-second blade change
Leatherette travel case with mirror & 5 platinum coated super blades
Our reputation for quality is best shown in our luxury shaving soap. Dr. Selby Professional shaving products have been created to achieve the perfect shave by adapting to the needs of every skin while protecting it from possible irritations.
Its formula, with abundant yet compact foaming without bubbles, softens the beard and allows a better slide of the razor blade on the skin, achieving a professional shave. Subtle lavender notes create a refreshing shave with a masculine scent.
A single jar provides more than 400 shaves when the container is kept dry and closed.

Been wet shaving for three months now and already have 8 razors. This hobby can become somewhat expensive when you're buying two hundred dollar razors, but it's a whole lot more enjoyable.

[@Tristin471]

That number will get much bigger as the years go by lol

[@kensurfs]

👍👍👍👍👍

[@AZShaveCave]

@@Tristin471 That's what I'm afraid of

[@Tristin471]

@@AZShaveCave I mean, if you find something you like and you only want to stick to that razor, that’s fine, too. Stick to what you have right now for awhile and get more accustomed to them. I’ve been into wet shaving now for about 4 years and I probably have 20 or so razors.

[@ryanbrown-k8v]

As soon as I click on the video I hit the like button cause I know it’s gonna be a good one. I wait all week for your videos mr ken!! Awesome as always.

[@kensurfs]

I appreciate that, thank you👍💈💈

[@jasonnyc2006]

@Kensurfs another great detailed educational breakdown of wet shaving products and techniques.

[@kensurfs]

Thank you👍💈

[@Jelopster]

The VB Chieftain was my first DE razor! A great transition razor. Still use it when I’m in a hurry

[@kensurfs]

👍👍

[@brianerskine3046]

Nice combo shave today, it's really hard to stay away from the rabbit 🐇 hole lol awesome razor and shaving soap 🪒💈

[@kensurfs]

Thanks 👍

[@patsco76]

Great video Ken, glad your back is feeling better. See you next time.

[@kensurfs]

Thanks 👍👍

[@crusader5989]

Dr. Selby is an excellent soap! And it is made in my home country! It has been a classic here for decades!!

[@kensurfs]

👍👍

[@DismontDeSire]

A good soap and a good shaving brush are always a great combination for shaving. And Rich always makes beautiful and high-quality brushes. Thank you very much Ken!

[@Shafty1609]

I’m a wayfarer guy. On my third pair since 1978. Every time I buy cheap sunglasses I either lose them or they break. I get 20 years out of a pair Wayfarers so I stick with them. Enjoy your new set. Cheers.

[@kensurfs]

Awesome😎😎😎

[@steveboyd3455]

The Romans actually built a second wall, about 100 miles north of Hadrians Wall in southern Scotland. It was called the Antonine Wall. But they abandoned it.

[@kensurfs]

💈👍👍👍

[@dannyforch]

Awesome video as usual Ken! My favorite part of my shaves is the alcohol burn! Have a great weekend!

[@kensurfs]

Thanks, you too👍💈💈

[@davestelling]

Me, too - "Oh...THE BURN!" I've found myself imitating Ken's "Burns." lol...

[@knightmare1015]

Excellent shave Ken. There's nothing better than getting rid of an itchy beard. I usually spend around 5 minutes between video cuts rinsing my brush out after I applied the alum. The synthetic brushes seem to rinse much better.

[@kensurfs]

Very cool Stephen 👍💈

[@BartBuzz]

Nice shave. Vikings Blade has some good low-cost safety razors. I do have the Chieftain Jr. and the Emperor. Although I rarely use them anymore. The Rockwell 6S and the RazoRock Game Changer 68 are my usual go-to's these days. As far as sunglasses, I like my Ray-Bans and the inexpensive DUCOs.

[@kensurfs]

Right on👍👍💈👍

[@dappershaves]

more folk needs to revisit older/lesser used gear. as we evolve our shave we learn. thanks for sharing Ken, your channel rocks! regards Mr Straight Razor

[@kensurfs]

Thank you👍💈💈

[@MidwayShooter]

Thanks for sharing your shave & glad your back is better! I gotta get that razor storage rack. Also, any chance of an EDC video? Bugout still? 💈

[@kensurfs]

Still have the blue bugout on me

[@terrym1065]

Spoke too soon bro....burn baby burn...hahaha! Nice shave Ken🪒🪒 Vikings Blade is a brand I've no experience with but this razor worked. I built some razor stands out of graphite rod, completely full now and need to build more...too many razors I think🤨 Take care.

[@kensurfs]

👍💈💈💈

[@HeinoRanda]

i only use randolph sunglasses, and i even have there frame into normal glasses so i see, have never found any more comfortable and that quality

[@goldensteeltv8546]

Great shave. I don’t wear sunglasses as much. I wear eyeglasses because of my blurred vision. Every time I put on my sunglasses, I have to put them over my eyeglasses, which can be a pain in the ass. Have a good one!

[@kensurfs]

Thank you

[@Johndoo59]

Hallo 🙋‍♂️ Ken fantastic Shave . Thank you 😎🎸💈💈🪒

[@kensurfs]

Thx

Great shave great video, stay safe....cheers....Peter

[@kensurfs]

Thanks 👍💈💈💈💈

[@MisterRz]

I think you just hung your brush wrong

[@kensurfs]

I did

[@michaelhunyadi5087]

Nice. I always dry my razor. Hang my brush upside down for a day to help it drain and dry. Take care all.

[@kensurfs]

👍💈💈💈

[@lisapearman8975]

Lisa Great video and really nice razor 😶 I wear varifocal glasses that turn to sun glasses.

[@kensurfs]

Awesome

[@Captleemo]

Try some Serengetti Drivers, very relaxing in bright sunlight

[@kensurfs]

👍👍👍

[@michaelturnbull8072]

Nice burn ken

[@kensurfs]

Thanks 👍

[@Tristin471]

I don’t like wearing sunglasses because I wear eyeglasses and hate having to switch back and forth and I tend to lose them. For that reason, I have Transition lenses that get dark in the sunlight.

[@kensurfs]

Good call👍👍👍

[@nathanieldaiken1064]

An old toothbrush and a spot of dawn dish liquid to keep the razor shiny!😁

[@kensurfs]

Great tip!👍💈

[@BrandonIslander]

Have fun looking at those aviators lol... personally i like the Oakley lifetstyle sunglasses

[@kensurfs]

👍💈💈

[@victorbogen1558]

speaking of the country new castle my stepmother is from austria and my dad was supposed to go to his wife county were she from! but not far from ur county! but the flight from queens in ny is 18 hour flight! I never been on a plane for that long. most was to puerto rico we're am grandma from! 4 hours only

[@kensurfs]

👍👍

[@cmtwgrdk2748]

Try another shave, but this time ride the cap a bit more than the guard, and you might have tp apply slightly more pressure, thats so the skin actually is bend enough to come in contact with the blade,, the attak angle of the blade will be more shallow, but the blade will cut easier

[@kensurfs]

Very good💈💈💈💈

[@rhglpk2800]

Great video as always! 👍

[@kensurfs]

Thanks again!👍💈💈

[@MisterRz]

I mean SinatraLennon's videos are like reality show, unscripted and goofy 😂

[@kensurfs]

He’s great👍💈💈💈

[@tomassalazar2798]

I seen that video with the apple airpads max but not very many youtubers show us how their content is made plus your videos are a sepcitcale for the senses

[@victorbogen1558]

​@kensurfs u know one of his video he had shouted u out and hads one of ur brushes

[@JonArtus]

Love your videos Ken, can you tell me if there are any good shave supplies in the OC? I’m visiting Newport from the UK next month. Jon

[@kensurfs]

Absolutely Fabulous in Huntington Beach on Springdale street has a pretty good selection. They host shave meetups sometimes

[@JonArtus]

@@kensurfsthank you I will definitely check it out 😊

[@mroldbean2]

Knot down ken!

[@kensurfs]

👍👍

[@FatsquatchPNW]

Boy, that razor makes almost as much noise as that Van der Hagen of mine. Must be a budget razor thing. Sunglasses for me are a "buy something cheap" item. Mine fall off my head and hit the deck so often it's ridiculous. I end up having to replace them at least once a year because the lenses get so scratched that it causes visual problems. So yeah, no Oakleys or Ray Bans for me.

[@kensurfs]

👍👍

[@nickkambitis5340]

They are very handy for dog drinking bowls

[@kensurfs]

I agree

Are You still using Dry Blade? If so, have You done a video on Your review of the Dry Blade product?

[@kensurfs]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/qV7dhHV4iJuIea8

[@Daniel-ns8bk]

@@kensurfs Thanks for your reply. The video you linked was where I remember Your input on Dry Blade; I did click the like button. From Your suggestions I did purchase the Dry Blade, and I have been using it with both DE blades and cartridge blades; at the same time. Since it has been awhile since I've seen the Dry Blade product; I was curious if You were still using Dry Blade, and if You believe it is, or can, prolong shaving blades?

[@Jay..potter..86]

I love my Augustus, and I find a feather works amazing in it. I have a question Ken. I want a razor thats straight down the centre of mild and aggressive, so when I get new blades and soaps I know myself what side they sit on. The cost doesn't matter just as long as the quality it good. Do you have any recommendations?

[@kensurfs]

A Rockwell 6C with the #4-5 plate will do

[@Jay..potter..86]

@kensurfs fantastic, thanks Ken.

[@mazz777]

trying this for the first time I feel like it’s killing the hair not really smooth. the kit came with training razors i assume I need to get the more aggressive ones ?

[@kensurfs]

Blades make all the difference

[@HeyHey-v8g]

Where did u get ur shave brush from

Rich man shaving. The link is in this video description
