Getting a chance to try out two new products from Portugal today from the folks at TATARA Shaving. I’ve had these for over a week and I have been eager to give them a try.
From their website-
“The Masamune Razor is 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 is 100% produced in Portugal, is CNC machined in AISI 303 high grade stainless steel, hand finished and sand blasted, in order to give the beautiful final effect to a high quality product.”

I'm Portuguese, and today was the first time I listened about this Portuguese company and they razors and brushes. We are a small country but sometimes our best products reach first other countries then inside our own country. This products are expensive but are top notch. This is not the first time I see your videos, you are one of the few KZreadrs on wet shaving I really appreciate and enjoy see your videos, thanks.

"There's the Burn" needs to be a tee-shirt👍 Way more of a trademark than soap in the ear. You were saying you were late to the party with the razor, but that's a good thing because now they're in stock. Superb looking brush 😍

Some great new products you have there Ken, love the Proraso green line of shaving soap, pre shave cream and after shave. Take care :)
Awesome packaging! You know the product is good when the sender cares enough to package it like that!
Proraso and Ken is what got me into wet shaving. Thanks Ken👍
By far my favourite razor! The quality of construction and level of engineering going into it are unlike any other I’ve seen. I’m having one of those a brushes too!

Hey Ken, as always, a great video and great products. I love Proraso green and you make great videos! All the best for you and best regards from Germany ;-)
I've been using one of these razors in my rotation for a few months now and it is my smoothest yet efficient razor in my den.
Hi Ken- Great shave and razor/brush reviews; thank you! Beautiful razor; I have seen a number of reviews of the razor, but this is the first review I’ve seen of the brush; I really like the handle! I hope you have been having a nice week. Be safe and be well. Best regards, as always, Ken!
Semogue and Tatara, wonderful combination !!!!
Great shave, Ken! Have a nice week!

Both are really good looking, very different from anything I've seen.
That’s the razor that got me through my blood thinner year! It’s the -0.13 mm blade exposure and lock-tight blade control. Very kind to the face. Good to see you experience it for yourself, Ken. The brush looks nifty. I may just get me one.
Awesome looking shave set. I haven't seen the brush before. Thanks for your reviews. I enjoy them even if the products are out of my price range.

Great shave buddy, and awesome razor/brush set! 💈😉🤙🏼💈
Excellent shave Ken! Congrats on the 20K by the way:)
Hi Ken, I received this razor this week and the Nodachi last week! I got them with both open and closed combs. I found them both very, very nice. The Nodachi is a lot more aggressive but the •63 Masamune is super smooth and still very efficient. Beautifully made and I find the weight of the •63 Masamune like you have here is just right. I too like a little bit of overhang of the blade. Without it, it is so difficult to get hold of the blade and the blade stick in if soapy. I took off 7 days growth really easily with a 2nd use Vikings sword blade. As for lathering....it's each to their own! Stay safe Sir! Dave from England. 😁😁.
Pre shave in the ear, soap in the ear, just a bit of aftershave in the ear now Ken and you’ll be all set! Haha great video again thanks Ken hope you and your family are safe and well.
Cool razor love that
I just bought a gillette adjustable on ebay can't wait to try it.
Very nice looking razor and brush. I guess that set will last you a lifetime. I'm still using a boar brush I bought in the early 1980s not sure of the brand but it's "Made in Britain". The Proraso green soap is also one of my favourite soaps. Enjoy the rest of your week 🇦🇺
Great shave Ken. That's a cool razor and brush set. I love the Proraso Green products too. I used my 68' Gillette Slim, Arsenal Grooming soap (Brooklyn Barber) and splash. I'm back to work for the past two weeks. Overtime already so I'm behind on videos. Haha. Have a good week!
If anyone have this Razor and brush by Tatara then you don’t need any razors and shaving brush,very well made and perfect set , great shave Ken with it 👌🏻
👍Dude! Hope you are having a great day!

Great shave. I bought the Proraso Green and White soaps at a local Marshall’s that just reopened recently. I used the White soap yesterday and it gave me a great lather. I’m gonna use the Green in my next shave to see how it goes
I tried both the Masamune and the more aggressive Nodachi and kept the Nodachi . Love it

Hi Ken, this razor is really very beautiful and interesting, I will buy it in the future, with both combs, then I also want to take the Nodachi version, always with both combs. 👋👋👋🇮🇹
Happy Midsummer Ken, greetings from Sweden. 👍
Love your viddies. And I can’t believe you get critiques on how you lather. I skip through shaving vids when the shaver lathers for ten minutes. Keep up the good work!
Great shave Ken,glad to see you doing well during Covid19 which is still making it's way across the world.Glad to see the English premier league back on our screens tommorow night after 90days..My beloved liverpool football club are going to win the league 😁

Great video Ken! Just a FYI, Masamune is pronounced as Ma - Sah - Mu- Nay Interesting to know that the boar on that brush doesn't smell, that means they had pre-treated it and washed it well. And that smile when you did that first stroke! If that is the default Masamune, its one of the most comfortable razors I own so, yeah, it feels great! The Closed comb has a negative -0.13mm blade exposure on a 0.63gap, the open comb brings that to -0.10mm with a 0.73mm gap. You can pair that default Masamune with the Nodachi cap for a true neutral 0.00mm blade exposure with that 0.63mm gap. Or my personal favorite use the Masamue Cap with the Nodachi closed comb base plate for a negative -0.03mm blade exposure with a 0.90mm gap. Incidentally, you can use a standard handle with the Nodachi Cap, the Masamune cap unfortunately requires the proprietary handle.

Nice shave as usual Ken lovely looking razor and brush you are right about the price though well out of my price bracket some of us wet shavers just get to look at the best equipment its like watching Top Gear here in UK

Proraso is classic goodness!
I was waiting for the Spyderco to cut the paper.... That razor and brush look NICE!!! A bit reminiscent of the Muhle brush (badger or synthetic (synth are really nice, different to all chinese brushes). And then there is the Muhle Rocca SS Version 4 razor....another fine instrument. Now regarding the skin, I always used sunblock and rashguards...BUT my Vit D levels were very low....had to take a lot of it....make sure you get that checked more now w the virus....you want to take D3! Be safe Cheers. Nice vid!
Ken, nice shave didn't look that mild to me ! I did try the BlueBeards Revenge blades and i was happy with the results certainly a lot less intense than the Feathers that i have been using, those buggers are mustard !
Nice shave Ken! I don't like the design of the razor's that much but the brush looks really nice!👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Green Proraso preshave - FTW! :)
Today I used the Proraso green soap for the first time, and man! It's a cold burn.
"No wonder the razor and brush work so well. It says Made in Portugal!" "What do you mean Doc? All the best stuff is made in Portugal!" :D ;) Supreme shave KenSurfs! Proud to see you shaving with products from my country. :) Really happy to know you enjoyed the portuguese products. :) Be well and stay safe. :)

I'm impressed with the packaging. That quality of detail in paper and wax is a good indication to the attention put into their products. Speaking of the cost, I wish you would do a video on that subject. What justifies the $50.00, $150.00, or more for a brush when one that is $19.00 works great and last for years? And razors pushing multi-hundreds of dollars instead of one that is around $40.00? I know in most products, you get what you pay for, but stainless steel is stainless, and CNC machining is the same. (Turn the metal, add threads, etc...) Pre-shave, pre-shave, I hear you, Kevy, Geo... everyone speaks of pre-shave, but no one really take about it. So I started looking into them, and decided on straight coconut oil. Super slick, and gave me a wonderful shave. A pound jar for same or less than an ounce of pre-shave oil online.
I wonder what would happen if you put two DE blades in a safety razor... Ken,congratulations for hitting 20k subs!🥳🥳
Your crystal skull candle holder is always eye-catching. Which ml size is yours here? Greetings from S.Korea!
Great video, Ken 🖐️🙂👍💈 actually atmospheric razor and brush, but price..
One nice thing about Poraso is that it does well in hard water. The "Latha" series from Barrister & Mann has similar hard water "chops." I have friends in North & Mid Florida who complain about their more expensive soaps not lathering well. Just put a pinch of pure citric acid in your water.
Lol.... I'm from Portugal and didn't even know that we made that. Seems that I'm going to have to spend some money that I've saved from cartridges! Portugal cacete! 🇵🇹❤️💚

What a fantastic brush and razor. Razor reminds me of my Timeless and I love it. You are exactly right about starting out with say a $30 razor and if you enjoy wet shaving, save up for a high end unit or hope to get it as a gift from a loving wife! I am going to have to order that brush. I love my boar rush but have been looking for a stainless steel handle one to have on the rack next to my Timeless stainless steel razor. Great shave and have you finished Ozark? How did you like it?? I will also suggest the movie Game Night to you. Take care!

Every time I see that razor I think: Classic Doctor Who since it(and the brush)looks like came off of a Dalek.. ;-)
One of the great things about your videos is the awesome lighting in your shave den. Did you go out of your way to make the shave den have good lighting for the videos or just personal preference?
Another mint video m8 can I make a suggestion for a future video if there was only one razor and soap what would be your choice thanks
I have the open comb and use a feather blade. Very smooth shave. Try the feather next time.
Amazing video, which karve christopher bradley plate it matches best in your opinion?
@Kensurfs another great breakdown on various shaving products. I'm using my favorite Razor the Bali BTS 131, I paid $8.50 tax included. I'm using a Feather Blade, which is my 2nd favorite #1 Blade. So far, it is Astra Blue. I'm getting ready to try a Muhle R41, still thinking if I should invest in it?
Hey Ken great shave again. I haven't seen you using a Parker razor or blades.. Can you try them once
Go video Ken, checked out their website your right on the $$$. It’s hard to beat my Murker 34c HD!
Great shave, it s feels like a mild razor, can be used as a daily driver?
Great video! Going to have to try me some Paraso. Would like you, Kevy and PaulHFilms to rate razor agrressiveness from 1 - 10 in yalls videos (of course the rating would be understood as according to your profile and mentioned blade.)
Good review and I always appreciated your insight. I'm thinking of trying a bore brush in the under $30 range... any suggestions Ken?

Ken which Rockwell 6s plate would you compare this to? Thanks ahead of time
You would of course have to give the boar brush a dozen or shaved to break in. I’m just getting my SOC boar brush up to speed.
