For Every Skin and Hair Type After several prototypes, we achieved the perfect balance between every level setting. The very mild configuration at level 1 is ideal for more sensitive skin or shorter facial hair. Perfect to transition away from cartridge razors or if you prefer a milder shave. For more experienced shavers, or when dealing with bigger and curlier facial hair, our top setting has a greater gap and higher blade exposure for a closer shave. Patented Adjustable Sliding Plates System The Muramasa’s unique blade exposure setting, made possible through the sliding base-plates system, provides: Simultaneous adjustment of blade gap and blade exposure. Wide range of adjustments ( 5 levels, pre-set levels with in-between adjustability). No need for “wear and tear” pieces like springs. Quick adjustment without disassembling the razor. All parts in marine-grade Stainless Steel To ensure maximum performance and longevity, all the pieces are made from solid material and CNC machined in AISI 316L marine-grade Stainless Steel. Our expertise with CNC machines allows us to reach unbelievable levels of precision, with tolerances as fine as 0,02mm. This gives minimal friction and wears to all the parts, providing durability and contributing to the safe use of the Muramasa. Compact Head Thanks to our simple and efficient patent-pending mechanism, we managed to keep the head dimension to a minimum. The result is a beautiful razor that can reach anywhere on your face, even the more complicated areas around the nose and mouth. To improve user safety, we also covered the blade tabs to avoid cuts during the shave and while changing the blade. Elegant Packaging Your razor will be proudly and beautifully packed in a natural cork box, covered by a textured linen cardboard box marked with our golden logo and sealed with a magnet. Cork is the bark of the cork oak, which means that it is 100% natural plant tissue and is the only wood that you can obtain without cutting down the tree. It is a one-of-a-kind raw material from the Alentejo region, in Portugal.

I do not make that statement lightly. I started out with a Merkur knock off, and since then have owned a B&R, three different versions of the Rocnel Sailor, and finally the Rockwell T2 Stainless Steel version. I’ve also owned non-adjustable Timeless and Above The Tie razors. The Muramasa beats them all. The five most important factors I care about are smoothness of shave, efficiency, ease of cleaning, fit & finish, and aesthetics. The Muramasa is the best or equal to the best in all five categories.In terms of smoothness and efficiency, the Muramasa is the quickest shave with the least cuts compared to all of the other razors. The Rocnel is as efficient, while the Rockwell is as smooth, but none of the others excel in both categories. The head geometry of the Muramasa is quite compact, making it easy to get the hairs under the nose; the Rockwell is by far the worst in this area, having a huge head geometry.While shaving, to me it’s important to be able to easily clean hair off of the bottom of the blade edge. The slots at the bottom of the razor hear help the Muramasa excel in this area as well. This is one are where Rocnels are not great, as it is a pain to get all of the hair out of that area.The fit and finish are unimpeachable on the Muramasa. The razor feels very solid in my hand, yet it is easy to take apart, and the mechanism seems like it will be very durable. A really nice touch is that the razor base has a hard nylon sleeve in which the razor sits, so that there is no contact between steel parts of the handle and base, preventing scratching. This is a small thing, but it shows Tatara’s attention to detail. While I love the Rocnel Sailors, they eventually start having issues with the head turning when you turn the sharpness dial.Finally, aesthetics. This is of course subjective, but the Muramasa is a truly beautiful razor. The grip circle indents are unique, the matte finish adds a real touch of class, and the overall appearance is very attractive. I would put only the Rocnel in its class.All in all I highly recommend this razor. It is not cheap, but it checks all of the boxes, and fit and finish are truly outstanding.
