MASAMUNE NODACHI

Longer and sharper. Go expert
KNOW MORE

The Masamune Razor was the first TATARA shaving product to be produced. It has been
fashioned with the look of a classic safety razor but with unique lines of the future and, due to a
minimalist design is able to transmit our view supported by purity, elegance, and simplicity.
The Masamune Razor has a shorter handle and is smoother than the Nodachi mostly because
uses a smaller blade gap and blade exposure.

The Masamune Nodachi Razor is an update from the Masamune Razor. Like the original
Nodachi katanas, it is longer and the blade feeling is amplified. All in favor of a closer and sharper shaving experience.
Nodachi is for more experienced users who like a more efficient shave. It is usually used by
people with a more irregular and strong beard.

All TATARA products are 100% produced in Portugal, is CNC machined in AISI 303 high grade
stainless steel, hand finished and sandblasted, in order to give the beautiful final effect to a high-quality product.

Differences between
open and closed comb

The open comb is a comb that by its geometry allows the guidance and passage of more hair against the blade and can cut the stronger hairs.

The closed has small grooves along the edge of the plate and turns out to be smoother. It's used by those who shave every day and is ideal for those who are switching from disposable or cartridge razors.

CNC machined from a solid 100%
high grade Stainless Steel

To ensure maximum performance and longevity, all the pieces are made
from solid material and machined with tolerances up to 0,02mm.

Classic 3 pieces design

The Masamune series is in all aspects focused
in simplicity and minimalism.

It features the simple and classic 3 pieces assembly design
that will never get old or compromise

Unique fitting system

Specially designed for the Masamune Razor and one of the exclusive specifications. It is responsible for:

- High perpendicularity between handle and razor head which permits a better precision during the shaving:

- Symmetrical load distribution on the threads preventing excessive wear and increasing resistance.

Blade vibration damping design

The wide contact area that supports the blade between the cap and base plate is one of the most important features of our razors. It guarantees that the blade does not vibrate during the shave, giving the smoothest shave possible

Engineered to be balanced

Balance has major importance for ergonomics and action. Masamune Razor is designed so you can find the correct blade angle naturally.

The Dark edition

All Masamune Razors have the Dark edition.
The black PVD (Physical Vapour Deposition) is a thin film coating process with a high adherence applied through a vacuum deposition process of highly ionized plasma in a PVD machine, at high temperatures. This allows obtaining coatings of high purity, chemically inert and biocompatible.
This process is also made in Portugal.

Every piece is hand finished

All pieces from the Masamune Razors are hand finished to extinguish every machining marks and to soften all the edges.

Sandblast finish

The sandblast treatment is done manually, piece by piece, to achieve a smoother and peaceful look

Cork packaging. Natural, premium and sustainable

Your Masamune Razor will be packed in a natural cork box, involved by a black silk paper and sealed manually with black wax.
Cork is the bark of the cork oak, which means that it is 100% natural plant tissue.
Cork is the only wood that you can obtain without cutting the tree.
