Tatara Masamune Nodachi Closed Comb Base Plate

The base plate comprises the Tatara “T” slots to guide the blade and a hole in the middle of the plate configured to receive the cap and engage with the handle.

Due to the geometry between the top cap and the bottom plate, when the razor is assembled, the blade will deform and achieve a certain blade angle.

The closed comb plate is Tatara's smoothest option and the most popular. It is designed with small grooves along the edges of the plate giving less blade exposure to the skin.
