Question 1

What is the difference in the head between Crusader and Emperor besides materials used to make them?

Accepted Answer

Hi Oleg,
The Emperor has a very different head design.It has 4 lather channels on each side as opposed to the solid block design on the Crusader, making it less head heavy. The Emperor also has the settings engraved on the collar.

The mildest setting on the Emperor is milder than the mildest setting on the Crusader- hence, the Emperor is a friendlier razor than the Crusader and is suitable for both daily shavers or people who shave every few days (as the lather channels helps drain thick soap scum and long hair).

The Crusader on the other hand is more suitable for experienced daily shavers who want something more head heavy and something more intuitive.

Question 2

Can this shaver be used to shave private parts, shave your head, etc?  I've experience bad results with none adjustable types.

Accepted Answer

I've never tried using this razor on my head or private parts and quite frankly, I never would. This is a fairly aggressive razor and pretty unforgiving. I have very thick, curly facial hair so I need a hard core razor to get an effective shave. I'm an experienced DE shaver and I've still nicked myself a time or two with this razor. I'd recommend you use a less aggressive one, especially down there.

Question 3

What is the warranty on this razor?

Accepted Answer

You will get the standard one year warranty against manufacturer defects. Having said that, we're known to be a bunch of friendly chaps and often times we tend to help customers even long after their warranty has expired.

Question 4

If there are no numbers or markings, How do you know where to adjust to?  Are there clicks?  Is there a mid-point?

Accepted Answer

We have markings to indicate which direction to dial for a more aggressive or a milder shave. The Crusader has a continuous adjustment band instead of the standard click system. Vikings Blade’s intention of this no-number, no-click, no-pointer design is to create a pure fluid shaving experience for advanced users, where they will quickly learn to gauge the Crusader’s aggression level simply by looking at the blade gap. After the user has become familiar with this, they will feel 100% confident maneuvering any new razors just by looking at the blade gap instead of having to re-learn another different numbering system.
