@noslen Could you share a bit more on how the Nodachi differed with the Blackbird? The Nodachi has come back up on my radar recently. Blackbird Ti is my current baseline and Yates H and EH were on my list to try as well.Personally I wasn't fond of the Nodachi when I had it, but I have yet to own another razor that can beat the Blackbird, best part of that is the Blackbird is cheaper (even the titanium I believe....Tataras aint cheap)
