Active Coming soon - Tatara titanium pass around with Masamune and Nodachi parts included

My time with the Tatara kit is over and the razor is heading back.
I am not going to write a monologue, as it's all pretty much in my posts already or it's already been said by others.
I would like to thank @Masamune and especially João at Tatara for allowing me to try it all out.
João my wife and I loved the look and feel of the razor and every shave gave a premium result, even the plates I didn't think I enjoyed, so top marks for creating a fantastic set up.
I am sure at some point in the future I will end up buying everything I tested but thankfully for my wallet your out of stock with a lot of things phew for me.
It would be great if you would consider selling everything in the kit as an option.
That's it from us and I say to anyone considering the Tatara and you qualify, pop your name on the list you will be glad you did.

Tuesday 12th December Savonniere du Moulin Shaving Soap & Razorock 400 Limited Edition Yaqi Tachi w/Windrose Darwin Handle & Treet Platinum (2) Pinaud Clubman Classic Vanilla After Shave Lotion The weight and balance of the head on this alternative handle is absolutely bob-on and permits...

The sensation of heat is strange . I will never get used to Titanium.
Among the various metals used, it is the one that transports the least.
The relationship is clear by looking at the table. (TI 22 / AL 235)
It takes a long time to heat up, and it cools down quickly.
It does not take heat from the hand. It feels "cold" .
A question of sensitivity, rather than physics.

Very present feedback. The blade feels good.
The Masamune topcap controls aggression.
But the Nodachi base requires good control.
It commands respect and attention, even given the even more open angle.

For my preferences, Mod3 is a less convenient form.
It loses speed and light-heartedness, but gains in effectiveness.

Like yesterday, but more difficult.
The contact surface of the safety bar is more than halved and makes less comfortable.
Maintaining control of the angle requires more effort.
Nothing that isn't easily overcome with a little bit of practice.
But still not my cup of tea.

For the rest, everything perfect.
Like yesterday, BBS in an OPS pass.

I have already tried this module.
As before, I find it my favorite in the Tatara ecosystem.
But the different weight and balance of Titanium feel them more akin.
This version is definitely more enjoyable for my tastes.
Definitely more efficient than the standard Masamune TI. (Mod1)
It loses little in ease and speed, gains a lot in effectiveness.
With the right control (technique) it is absolutely perfect.

I would certainly prefer an aluminum alloy version.
As well as the possibility of composing your favorite razor.
Without having to buy the entire model and add other parts.
I understand the costs associated with this different business model.
I don't understand why it isn't offered at a fair price increase.

EDIT

Looking more closely at the Tatara Razors website, there is the possibility.
https://tatararazors.com/customize

You have to take the individual components separately.
There is no composer in the shavers section.
As it would be more logical and easy.

But in return the price is adjusted.
Taking the three components, the total is discounted.
And the result is the same as the standard version.
