{"product_id":"limited-cx-hada","title":"Limited: Cx-Hada (1 of 6)","description":"\u003cp\u003eHada is the Japanese word for surface or skin, in sword making it refers to the grain pattern of forged metal—the structure revealed through its making. In traditional Japanese swordsmithing, hada is not applied to the surface. It is uncovered through forging, folding, and finishing. It is the visible record of how a material was shaped under heat and pressure. This is the pattern of mokume...\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cap of this Cx razor is a custom forged brass and copper metal. The material is called Mokume-Gane...it was originally developed in the 17th century to decorate the katana swords of the samurai. The term Mokume translates to \"wood grain metal\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Cx-Hada includes our S1 handle design.

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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e-\/Mild Base Plate\u003c\/strong\u003e -  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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e+ Base Plate\u003c\/strong\u003e -  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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e++ Base Plate\u003c\/strong\u003e -  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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0080\/7452\/6772\/files\/Blade_exposure_and_gaps_480x480.jpg?v=1624843087\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Carbon Shaving Co.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42732027314270,"sku":null,"price":679.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0080\/7452\/6772\/files\/Mokume_gane_safety_razor.jpg?v=1777695082","url":"https:\/\/carbonshavingco.com\/products\/limited-cx-hada","provider":"Carbon Shaving Co.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
