Tatara Masamune Nodachi DE Passaround Review - A Notable Evolution of the Original

Nice. So far their products have all been well done. We have conducted passarounds on all, including the badger brush. Unfortunately, midway through the brush passaround, COVID bit hard so it was halted.  A truly great brush as with all their products. They really understand branding as consistency of messaging.

The boar brush is great if you are into boars. I really like it.
Let me see if I can get any details on the adjustable.

Euros tend to prefer boars

Okay, I have a few details about the Muramasa adjustable from João at Tatara.

Designs have been completed and prototypes are being rigorously tested by the Tatara team. Realistically they aren't looking to release the razor before the end of the year. Guess it will depend on how testing goes as they want to get it perfect before starting production. I'm sure it will be worth the wait. Blade tabs will be covered, never been an issue with my Masamune or Nodachi but I know it's important for some.

Looking to move on from my Parker Variant and is as looking at a Karve or Tatara. After reading about delays and customer service from Karve, as well as the glowing reviews about Tatara here, I’m 99% looking to get one a Tatara. Just wanted to get an opinion from those of you who have tried it either a masamune or nodachi.

I shave every 2-3 days due to very sensitive skin. Not a huge fan of blade exposure. So I was thinking of a masamune plate with a nodachi cap to get efficiency since I shave every other day but without a lot of blade feeling given my sensitive skin. Thoughts?

BEARDoc Welcome to DFS, great group, I have the Nodachi and the Masamune baseplate  I find I use the Nodachi Top Cap with the Masamune baseplate most of the time I pick up my Tatara. With this combo it is zero blade exposure and give a very smooth 3 pass BBS shave for me.

I likewise have both masamune and nodachi top caps and base plates and quite frankly enjoy all four permutations. I think ShaveMD’s recommendation to pair the nodachi top cap with the masamune base plate is a good one. It is not quite as efficient as the nodachi/nodachi combination but has a smoother feel in my opinion.
