Yes.

Made in Portugul not PRC.!
Quality product.

True you got it. However, pushing it just a bit on price for a 3 piece well certainly for some I'd say me included. I wonder how it would stack up against my RW 6C

Pshaw! Anyone, excluding a serious collector, who pays that for a razor has more money than sense

6c is made in PRC Zamak razor
6s made in North America. Stainless Steel.

You cannot compare a pot metal razor vs stainless steel.
The 6s is built like a tank and a quality product for the price. This is a razor that can be passed down from generation to generation, ikewise for the Tatara razor.

If you think this razor is expensive, jump on the wolfman razors website and look at the price of what a fully polished razor will set you back.

That's not even Tatara's most expensive razor. The Muramasa adjustable comes in at EU329 (AUD$526).

Then you've got the likes of Rocnel USD$500 and Haircut and Shave Co 17-4 USD$500. The rabbit hole runs deep.

...and still only available on pre-order. They all look lovely though, much more of a TOB than a wolfperson. (Let the flames begin... )

I reckon my Tatara outshines any Yaqi razor by far!

There’s supporting artisans (both hardware and software) and there’s supporting Chinese mass production.

You do you.

Well there are some out there so it's each to there own but saying that a lot of $'s for a 3 piece

I have 3 razors for $40 delivered if you are not interested in spending a lot of cash!!

 

[58RW]

I saw and they are a bargain crazy if someone doesn't pick up on them. For me thanks but like a few of us trying to thin out

Ti BB is all I use these days, yeah it was pricey compared to some but man it shaves well. If I bought that first I wouldn't have bought all the other razors I own so it would have saved me money in the long run, as well as time and effort trying to find the one.

Yes I would believe you.
There are razors out there above and beyond AliExpress level.

If it ain't brass it's just a temporary fad, and vintage brass trumps all.

Why would anyone pay stupid money on a razor, or toothbrush, or nail clippers, or any other bathroom tool?

Yep!

[TobyC]

I've got less than five bucks in these two, and that includes shipping and tax. There is no razor on the planet that can outshave or outlast them, the one on the left is a 1906.

You can pay a lot of money, or you can buy a great razor, doing one doesn't necessarily get you the other.
