In getting a lather of this quality, There is none better than you. Even the other youtubers should learn from you. The quality of lather, the sound of blades cutting through hair, Its a treat to watch!!!
Hi Kevy, when you say it wouldn't be your daily driver. Why not as it looked very nice indeed and gave a great shave.
I don't think I could shave every day with it. Maybe, but I don't think so. Never say never! Cheers. Kevy👍
I'm SOLD!! I had been saving for a Blackland, but my desire has now shifted toward the Nodachi. I was certain the Feather would leave irritations galore. But this shave sounded as smooth as it looked. I did take note that you were paced with more care in speed. The conclusion being a two pass, with pickups! That alone was the selling point for me. Your last episode put me in touch with Tatara via Instagram. I went on their site, and I became bewildered at the absolute quality of manufacture in machining stainless with compromise to form. This razor is a winner, and I am anxious with excitement as to the next blade pairing! You have always inadvertently got me to spend money, but this time I won't ever regret the purchase. Thanks again, mate! A blade wielded in the the darkness. Never turn your back on The Ripper. Enjoy a safe, and restful weekend. Please forward the same to the remaining Parr family.
I too have a Masamune Nodachi, very very close shave with a feather blade. The blade is ridiculously rigid and IMO it is the closest you will get to a straight razor shave. Keep your skin flat by stretching apply no pressure. Two days growth 1 pass and touch up. 4 days growth 2 pass and touch up. Just stunning, agree very smooth you can hardly feel the blade. Closest shave i have ever had. Have a red tip, a slant and an outlaw. This just pips the outlaw but only just IMO. Well done Kevy great channel really enjoy your scottish sense of humour. You are the only you tuber that shaves properly and your lather is on another level. Love your vids !
Thanks Tariq 👍
Holy Shit! I even turned up the volume on my speakers, and began to laugh, what a shave!!! Fuck that's smooth!!!
😂😀
Another great shave Kavy! I agree, the wet shaving community is indeed an awesome community to be a part of. I hope you have a wonderful weekend 😎
I bought the masamune razor and wow were you right. The feather blade in that razor was the best shave I've ever had.
Brilliant!!
Love the audible on the stubble!

Hi kevy,
Just watching this again! I have just shaved with my Masamune closed comb ( Not my Nodachi), Castle forbes lavender cream, 4th use Gillette minora blade and my 26mm knot FS Manchurian badger brush. A slow 3 pass shave with pick-ups. It was a fabulous shave. Everything on this shave was great. Razor and blade great, soap very slick, brush great with a good amount of backbone for a manchurian badger. Great to watch you again!! I haven't been watching or posting recently as I've been going through horrible biopsys etc for Prostrate cancer and 12 weeks with a Catheter (😖😖). I have low risk cancer so it's not too bad and the pills I'm on have allowed me to manage without the Catheter and waterworks back to normal. I hope you, Mrs Kevy and Riley are well Sir!!
Dave.
Good to hear things are getting better for you Dave. All the best. Kevy 🙂👍
@@kevyshaves4109 Thanks mate!!
Definitely tempted to buy the Tatara. I have seen you with other less aggressive, albeit aggressive razors and those usually tear your face up some. Like I mentioned on that last shave, Tatara actually put out their technical specs including blade angle of exposure, gap, and actual amount of blade exposure which is 0.13mm negative from plane of the shave, which is why it is so smooth.
If I do get the Tatara, I'd pull trigger on the regular Masamune and not the No Dachi. That one has a 0.53mm gap and should be more daily driver friendly.
Let me know what you think if you decide to get one Steven. I'd be interested in hearing your thoughts on the Masamune. Cheers. Kevy 👍
Another great shave Kevy. Looks like the bowl is 3D printed. The texture in the resin is a nice benefit for a lather bowl 🍦
Thanks Aaron. Yes, it is 3D printed. Kevy 👍
I’ve taken a liking to the Feather blades lately.
I’m using up old soaps now rather than buying more. I used that soap, with the old L&L branding. I was amazed it provided a more comfortable shave than even the new Barrister & Mann Excelsior base, which I just finished.
Nice shave and video, Kevy (as always). It's nice to see someone else follow the quality of the shave to determine how many passes one does. As I've said before, I shave every day and generally only do two passes and pickups mostly because the shaves are just so close, it doesn't really warrant a third pass -- I've tried it and it just irritates my skin. Great job at listening to your ... face (I guess?). Have a great weekend, my friend.
Thank you Jack. Two passes and pickups was a great Discovery for me! See what I did there? Lol! 👍
Nice video. Indeed. I am thinking of endulging.... since it is not a cheap razor. But what a design !! Sometimes I need 4 passes with my Muehle 89 ! Not very effective,but without irritation. ... and a lot of fun. Thanks again and keep up the good work
Great shave Kevy. I’m always amazed that most wet shavers on youtube just shave in long strokes right over their Adam’s apple. That is the one area that really slows me down and I need to pull skin to either side and go gently. Watching you vids had definitely helped improve my technique though.
Hi Nick. Try taking a gulp and holding it before you swallow. The adams apple disappears and is a good way to shave over it. You can see me do that in most of my vids. But if pulling the skin to the side works for you, then that's ok too. Cheers. Kevy 👍
Hi Kevy. Love your videos and humor. You need a light on your left side because their is a shadow on that side of your face. Have a great weekend and keep those vids coming!
Thanks for letting me know Ronnie. All the best. Kevy 👍
Kevy that’s the funniest one yet with the face wetting, keep up the great work on your channel.
Cheers Jerry 😀👍
The Tara Masamuni sure gave a close shave with the Feather blade💈 That soap is something else, been using it for some time now and find it to be a delight. The scent is fantastic, followed by TDH. My kind of shave this was☺️ Great video and review again as always 👍 Enjoy!
Hey there Kevy.. good to see you again.. nice job and I love that razor.. when I was new to wet DE shaving I would always Nick myself with Feather blades. Now, a year into it, I do so well with them.. my favorite blades. Hoping to visit your country soon! Frank from Boulder, Colorado, USA
Nice one Frank. I like Feather blades now. Hope you make it to see Scotland sometime. Kevy 😀👍
Love those feather blades mate.I got 4 good shaves with one blade.Happy with that.Have a great day.
I have ordred a Tatara nodachi razor. Have already the Tatara masasume razor. I am looking forward to receive it and try it with a Feather blade. If is more aggressive than the normal masasume razor 🤓
Thank you for giving my "2 cents" a try. I hope it may have helped in some small way. And on the subject of lighting; I could see you just fine. I saw no issues with the lamp you used. Everything was a A-Ok. ;-)
Cracking shave. I appreciate it was a 'dark' shave but your face looked polished by the end.
The razor/blade combo certainly looks like the gentle touch is absolutely a requirement😁
Hi Kevy. Whats not to like about that shave. A good looking efficient razor, an excellent soap and a feather blade. You nailed that shave.👍
Cheers Brian. I really enjoyed this one. Kevy 👍
nice shaving Kevy,good weekend!!!
I got a sample of that soap. It performs lovely - it is a very soft soap almost like proraso cream in a tube
Excellent shave sir and very smooth as well, the bowl is very nice. See you next time sir.
Thanks
Probably couldn't be a daily shaver for me either. Looks very efficient.
It is smooth and efficient.👍
Never touched the feathers in the box, too unsure. Thanks for pioneering that combo with great success. The bowl reminds me of the Timeless unbreakable bowl in design. Those two items were in my sights after looking at the Groom Room FB page. I believe Eucris was 007’s scent of choice.
Go on Paul, take a chance on the Feathers! Lol! It is kinda like the inside of the Timeless bowl. I didn't know that about Eucris. Nice one. See you soon. Kevy 👍
Great video as always kevy I must agree there really is some nice people in wet shaving community that bowl looks great and as for razor I’m drooling 🤤
That bowl looks great. Love to have them in the USA. 👍🏼🇺🇸
I've put the Forum where I bought it in the description of the video, Carmine. Cheers. Kevy 👍
Very nice shave sir. That bowl would be great for travel.
Yes, perfect for that. Kevy 😀👍
Cannot get that razor out here in Oz as far as I know and it would be interesting to see you have a shave with a Polsilver and Personna with the razor just to see how it compares with the Feather.
Great shave as always
0.9mm blade gap?
Guess what! I have a question 😃
- Which of them two gives a smoother shave Carbon or Tatara?
I believe you had the basic Carbon plate .68 so maybe difficult to compare?
Hi Kevy- Great shave and great shaving products; thank you! Beautiful, high-end shave all-around! Thanks for the heads-up on the Simpsons shaving cream; will definitely give it a try. I hope you are having a great weekend and all the best!
😧 Holy Smokes Kevy. . .
What a difference this shave was to your last one. It was like Night & Day! Who would of thought, a Feather would be a smooth blade!? 🤔 🤷🏻♂️
Great shave buddy! 💈😉🤙🏼💈
Love that razor and bowl. Great shave. I'm really loving my new Kevy shaves brush with gel tip badger knot. Keep up the great work, thanks for what you do.
Chers Ken 👍
A nice shave Sir! A beautiful razor!
Thank you for sharing 👍
Hi Kevy pal. That looks like a wonderful razor. I always think about getting new razors but when I get an amazing shave like I did this morning with my Merkur 34C, Ingrams cream and green Astra blade I decide against it. Great restraint I didn’t know I had. Great shave as usual. See you next time. Baz.
Nice one Baz. If it's working for you, no need to change. Cheers. Kevy 👍
Hi Kevy!!! Nice razor!!! Great shave as always. Love the videos!, Keep then coming.🙃. Have a great shave, Have a great day!!! (VLS)
Another great shave Kevy! Looks like I’ll be trying mine with the feather blade for my next shave (Likely Sunday) I’m amazed it’s smoother with the feather blade. What a razor! Appreciate the videos, so informative.
Nice one Jon. I read your reply on the forum. Looks like you enjoyed it with the Feather. 👍
Thanks Kevy. Looked like a great shave after the first pass. Always a good reminder for those new to wet shaving, you don't always have to do a 3 pass shave. I sometimes just have a 2 pass when my skins feeling a bit sensitive. Think I've got a new razor on my wish list! 😉
I use a ceramic ramen bowl with notches very similar to that one's. They are designed to rest chopsticks in, but work great to grip with your thumb. I got it at Uwajimaya, a Japanese grocery in the US. Would match well with your new Samurai sword there!
Sounds interesting Tim. Thanks for sharing. Kevy 👍
Love to have one of those!, Japan as far as blades & shaver, ever straight edge, you're definitely going to get quality!
Good on ya Kevy great shave. Just ordered my nodachi now. Looks a terrific razor can’t wait to try it.
Good stuff Paddy. Let me know how it goes for you. Kevy 😀👍
Just got a puck of lorange noir, may have to move it up in the rotation...
I'd love to try Declaration but the lanolin makes it forbidden territory for me!
It's a lovely scent. 👍
Yr lathering now on par with Cris, as far as my screen can tell. Find it a real challenge to squeeze any inch of latherability out of each soap, some sort of science... Sure type of water + time y spend whipping play the major part. Cheers.
That's a kewl bowl. Wouldn't mind having one of those. Hope he starts selling them. Amazing shave, kev.
I'll put the link to the forum in the description Jill. 👍
Nice shave ,Kevy
Nice one big man
Looks a nice razor
It was really hard to see you Kevy. More light please.
ok
Hi Kevy, great job as always! How does the Tatara Razor with a Feather Blade, compare to the Rockwell 6s with a Feather Blade, as far as closeness of the shave? Also, is the Rockwell 6s as smooth as the Tatara? Thanks for your great review!
Tatara is smoother
I think they're similar in feel with a Feather blade. I might do a comparison video of the two of them to see. They are both great razors. Kevy 👍
Great job Kevy, looking fresh! No dinner left on the shower?! 😀, Always looking at the start to the top right of the video. Keep up the great work
I'll get something for the next video Josh. Kevy 👍
@@kevyshaves4109 I'll keep my eyes peeled 😂
I've not found a DE razor that gets me to BBS in less than three passes. I tend to experience the "half-a-pass too much" feeling whenever my Parker Semi-Slant (55SL-SC) comes around on rotation. The Parker is nicely made (although not in stainless steel of course), so I'm persevering with it so far. Maybe its a technique thing, maybe its a blade choice thing? Time will tell, I guess.
I think the Nodachi might be the answer to your BBS in less than 3 passes Colin. 👍
Have a birthday on September 19th and was wondering if you could give me a shout out on your next shaving video. And wish me a happy 46th birthday. Thanks. Have a wonderful day.
Great shave Kevy how would compare that razor to the r41
It feels nothing like the R41. It feels 10 ten times smoother, there isn't as much blade feel and the shave it gives me is much more comfortable. Kevy 👍
Hi Kevy! I've been lurking on your channel as a silent subscriber for a while now. Some of your videos have been LOL funny for me! Most of them could have worked as podcasts since your voice and musings are entertaining enough even without the video. Very nice! Anyway, you asked for some comments on the lighting, so here goes... I think it was probably bright enough but it seems a bit cold and clinical... I am guessing you could be a "daylight" LED or energy saving bulb? I wonder whether replacing it with a "warm white" bulb might take a bit of the clinical edge off?
Of course, you could try taking it to the max and turn you bathroom into a scented-candle grotto in a future video...
Thanks for that Colin. I could warm the colour up a bit in the post production easily enough. Cheers. Kevy 👍
Ha ha!
Great review Kevy thanks. I’m thinking of getting the nodachi so found this really useful. I’ve already got a game changer .84 and wondered how this would compare to the nodachi? I like the idea of being able to try it with the masamune base plate to turn it into a daily driver
It's just as smooth as the Gamechanger. Maybe the Nodachi has a touch more blade feel if thats your thing, not too bad though. Cheers. Kevy 👍
Kevy Shaves great thanks for the reply
How's it going?) From the expression on your face I can say that this safety razor will be in your favorites I think it has a good performance and the Feather blade combination was very good and smooth shaving. Hey kevy a question I am thinking of acquiring another badger shaving brush, which would you recommend would be a good choice?)
Greetings .
That Darn Rob if you're in the States. Also, from China, Oumo badger knots are amazing. Or the Kevy Shaves Discovery badger brush is very good. 😉😀👍
Very nice video and shave my good friend Water 💦 Bed Kev I just ordered my Razor and can’t wait for it’s arrival thx again my good friend 👊🤘😎🤘
Cheers Silky. I think you will like it. 👍
@@kevyshaves4109 I’m gonna try the Muramasa on 4.5 on my next Shave to get the feel of it that’s supposed to be the setting equivalent to the Nordachi do you think I need to change anything in my Videos to better there content ?
@@SILKYSMOOTHSHAVES personally, I like what you're doing in your videos. You're funny and your videos are different from what's out there. Just my opinion of course 🙂
@@kevyshaves4109 ok kool thx much I will keep down the path I’m going your videos are awesome as well my good friend water bed Kevy Kev have a SILK SIlKIETY SMOOTH Day 👊🤘😎🤘
@@SILKYSMOOTHSHAVES 😂😁
Great Shave Kevy! I suggest that you get a lamp that makes you look better... ;-)
Those lamps are always out of stock for me Mike! Lol! 👍
Nice shave!!
An awesome shave Kevy!! I’m planing to go for my first high end razor but I’m not sure yet! I was thinking on the AS d2 but after seeing this one I’m confused again!!! It looked fantastic! Between these two, which one would be your choice?! With those prices I can’t go wrong ! Haha
Hi Lucas. I think it depends on what you like in a shave. The Feather AS-d2 is a real classy razor. It is very mild but it's efficient and gets the job done too. The Nodachi is a little more efficient than the Feather but still, it doesn't feel harsh in any way. I think the Nodachi is the more versatile of the two as if it's paired with a milder blade it will still out-perform the Feather. Cheers. Kevy 👍
That’s right! How crazy is doing one more shave with that razor? I know you don’t like to repeat but would be interesting .. with a Nacet, or a Wilkinson . Cheers Kevy 👍🏼
I've used a feather with e jagger no cuts nicks sometimes new to d e shaving can be that nothing to fear but fear itself so because its sharp it can mess with your perception of this blades reputation a sharp blade is good its a blunt blade that's likely to cut you.
I really like stainless steel razors and own an Edwin Jagger 3one6, a Rockwell 6s and a Feather AS-D2 (that is currently AWOL, dammit). I might have to add a Masamune Nodachi to my wish list now... ;-)
Kevy, After watching your 2 videos on the Nadochi I ordered one. I did ask for the original Masamune handle and they were quick to reply that they could do that. No idea how long shipping is from Portugal to Ohio, USA but looking forward to trying a razor you think is the smoothest you’ve used. Does it replace the Rockwell 6S as your new favorite?
Nice one Mark. I need to do a comparison shave with the 6S and the Nodachi. I've used the 6S a lot more so I know how that feels but I think the Nodachi will be close to being my favourite razor now. Only time will tell....😀
Love the look of this beauty! After some advice though if you’d be so kind? I’m late 20s and just switched over to Safety Razor to try and combat years of horrible razor burn/bumps (mainly under chin) also have really coarse stubble growth. Been using the Merkur 23c for a couple of months now and loving it. Just wish it could sometimes leave a closer shave, seems a little too mild?? Looking at a slant razor as they sound to be even better for sensitive skin and the coarse beard but do you knowledgeable gents have any suggestions on a high quality slant razor? Not too worried about price, bit of an investment is fine. And with it being more aggressive would you recommend switching to a slant so soon or leave it for a few more months of experience as it is still relatively new to me? Cheers in advance fellas
I would say a slant razor would be a nice step up for you. The 3 that I would recommend are the Parker semi-slant, the RazoRock German slant and the Merkur 37C. All great razors. Have you considered an adjustable razor?They can be dialled up or down to let you choose the level of aggression you want. Cheers. Kevy 😀👍
Kevy Shaves great, thanks I’ll give them a look any of them stainless steel would you know? I have thought about adjustables but wasn’t aware of any adjustable slant razors? I think the slant aspect will be more helpful to me than the adjustable part from what I’ve seen. The slant sounds like it’ll help slice through the hair smoother reducing irritation so that seems to be priority for me over adjustable aggressiveness? Does that make sense? Grateful for any advice if I’ve got that wrong though. Thanks again 👍
None of the slant razors I listed are stainless steel. I think Above The Tie do a Stainless steel slant. I meant have you considered an adjustable razor. I don't think there are any adjustable slant razors but you have just put it out there with your comment. What a brilliant idea!! If we see an adjustable slant razor in the future we can say, you read it here first! Cheers. Kevy 👍
Great video. Thats a beautiful razor. Your brave using a feather blade with that razor. The feather blades knick me up when i use the with a more aggressive razor.
Thanks Ryan. The Feather blade seemed to work really well for me. Kevy 👍
What did I told you about the soap?! Wait until you try the Icarus base. Goat's milk added!
How is this razor compared to Blackland Dart & R41 Kevy?
It's similar to the Dart but a lot smoother and a lot less blade feel. It's a much comfier shave - for me - than the R41. Cheers. Kevy 👍
Oh crap! Now I need a Dart! :-) KING OF ENABLERS!
Ps Want some more Astor blades?
@@T-R.e.x I meant the Nodachi is similar to the Dart but the Nodachi is smoother and has less blade feel than the Dart.Im ok for Astor blades just now thanks. I've only used 1 of them!! 👍
Yes, I read it Kev, but you know that I like more blade feel! So Dart for me! It is cheaper too! :-)
Keep uploading these videos and keep make them longer! I'm a maniac viewer!
And so it begins... 😉👍
Nice shave kevy I
I have to have one of those bowls.. please let me know. I’m not figuring out how to by the link you posted
That link will take you to the Shaving forum where the guy that makes the bowls, let everyone know he's making them. The forum is called "Against The Grain". You might have to create an account to join the forum but it's a very useful place to be for all things wet shaving related. Cheers. Kevy 😀👍
Ty very much.
Great shave, Kevy! My (low-aggression) Tatara Masamune just shipped today, and I can hardly wait to try it out. I expect I'll do what you did: start with an Astra SP (my reference blade), then go to a Feather (since that's what comes with the razor), then try another familiar blade, say, a Nacet or Personna Lab Blue. Maybe it's too soon for you to say, but do know how much of the improvement from Shave #1 to Shave #2 to credit to the Feather blade versus your knowing the razor better? Cheers.
I think the difference was a combination of things between the shaves. The soap was a better performer than the TOBS cream, the Feather is a sharper blade so I was taking more time to shave and I think not doing 3 passes AND a pickup pass helped. Cheers. Kevy 👍
Thanks! 👍
hows the compare to the feather? really good for sensitive skin i think
It's a bit more efficient than the Feather but really smooth too. Cheers. Kevy 👍
Sr.mornig shave good or night

Soft Scottish water 😀
Sharp blades rule.....I have learnt...with my face there is NO room for shitty blades (this B$; but this blade is smoother......yeah.... that applies to some ppl with thin and sparce hair). Mine hurts if I dont use a top sharp blade..... nice video as usual
Wow, what a name for a soap, it means "Thrice Greatest", the Greeks used it to refer to God Hermes/Thoth, even today we use it to describe people or things that are Great.
Hence the refeeence to Héremes’ Terre...
