Softens and conditions the hair while helping condition dry-feeling skin beneath the beard.
No cheap fragrance oils, no water, no bulk. Just gear that works as hard as you do.
Field Manual
About the Owner
Hey, I'm Chase — the founder of Viking Recon Beard Gear.
I'm a U.S. Army combat veteran, and this brand was built from my passion for quality, discipline, and taking care of the details. It started in a kitchen — one batch, one bottle at a time — and grew into a mission: high-quality beard care for men who value performance, simplicity, and a purpose behind the products they use.
Viking Recon is more than grooming gear. It's the mindset I live by: stay disciplined, work hard, and always keep pushing forward. Thanks for being here and supporting a veteran-owned small business.
— Chase, Founder

Used right, no. Start with a few drops of oil (or a pea of balm) and add only if you need more. Work the product down to the skin beneath the beard for even conditioning.
Beard oil helps soften and condition beard hair while moisturizing the skin underneath. Beard balm provides light hold and helps tame stray hairs. A lot of guys run oil daily and balm when they want shape. Grab one of each for $40.
Add any two oils or balms to your arsenal — same scent or mixed — and $10 comes off automatically at checkout. Four items? Two pairs, $20 off.
Oils: about 3–5 drops for a short-to-medium beard. Balms: pea-sized to start. Longer beards need a bit more. If it looks shiny or wet, you used too much.
Beard oils are 1 fl oz (30 mL). Beard balms are 2 oz (56.7 g). Each is $25.
