Just aquired both the Masamune and the Nodachi. Have used both since. The Masamune first shave was with a Rapira Swedish. One of my favorites. First shave had a little tugging on two days growth. Left me with some irritation and did not feel very smooth. Shaved the second day with the Nodachi and a Perma Sharp. It felt more smooth and left a comfortable shave with two weepers. I’m wondering if the Rapira was a dud. Will use the Masamune again tonight.
Have wanted these razors for some time now and scored both with an extra OC Masamune plate for $200. I was prepared to buy the Masamune that same day and was offered the used trade ins and could not pass up the deal. Glad to be part f the club
