Maze x Freitas x Mizutani (blades)

[romanzdk]

Hello, could someone please compare these 3 blades (M. Maze, Freitas, Mizutani ZLC) in terms of speed, hardness, dwell time and overall performance?

Thanks a lot, will really appreciate

I have both the Freitas and MJ ZLC.
Maze & Freitas are the exact same blades, Freitas is a copy of the Maze, the handle just looks different.
The Freitas/Maze has a softer feel than the MJ due to the ALC, the MJ is/feels harder and has more power / less dwell time.

Hi I would differentiate between the Maze and the Freitas.
While I loved the maze for it's direct feature the Freitas is a bit more softish and indirect. After the Maze the Freitas was a disapointment.

You probably got different weights of both, if you tried a heavier Freitas, you'd get the exact same feeling as a heavy Maze.

Wood is wood so every blade is unique. I have tested 10 Mazes and 1 Freitas. Six of them has been exact the same weight and 2 others +-2g. Two of them are quite a like but otherones feels a bit different. I believe that Maze and Freitas blades are as similar as it gets.
