* Each of our Mokume Cx razors have a unique pattern. We update the photos when one is available so you can see the pattern.

Mokume-gane is a forge welded material developed in the 17th century in Japan. It was originally used to decorate the Katana swords of the samurai. The word translates to “wood grained metal” and was called such because of the unique pattern it creates with the different layers of material that look like wood grain. Unlike Damascus steel its secret was kept alive with Japanese artisans...we have named this Cx run after the samurai and the master metal workers of Japan who first developed the material.

*Base Plate Options:

  • All base plates have positive blade exposure
    Original Base Plate -  This was our first design configuration, what makes this plate unique is the added blade feel. It has a .68mm blade gap with positive blade exposure. This design offers a lot of user control with this exposure and gap configuration. For a milder shave, you can change the angle or “ride the cap” for sensitive parts like the neck. For other areas, you can still have a good amount of efficiency. I would not recommend this one if you have sensitive skin. If you have course hair this could be a nice choice.

    -/Mild Base Plate -  If you have sensitive skin, prefer less blade feel, have fine hair or just enjoy a mild shave, this is the one. Head shavers have enjoyed this one. This plate has our least blade exposure and a .71mm, our smallest blade gap. If you have sensitive skin, straight hair, curly hair or shave everyday...this is a nice choice.

    + Base Plate -  We reduced the blade exposure from the original but increased the gap to .88mm. This is a nice option if you prefer less blade feel, yet still enjoy a higher efficiency in a razor. This plate is also a nice option if you have dense hair or only shave every 2-3 days...if you are unsure what base plate is right for you, this is probably the one. You still have a good amount of user control with the positive blade exposure to adjust the efficiency with technique and blade choice.

    ++ Base Plate -  This one is for those who like a very efficient option. This plate is still with positive blade exposure, but has less exposure than the + Base Plate. This razor has a larger 1.08mm gap. If you have coarse hair, shave every 4-5 days or just like an efficient razor, this would be the one.
