    This is what I am getting at with the "angle of attack". On the top you see a single, normal bevel/edge/whatever. Lets say it forms a 150deg angle with your skin (arbitrary, I don't know what angle it is, but for sake of argument).

    In the second line one sees that with the weird formation in question, if you tried to shave normally, one way will be fine, while the other will actually yield a crappy angle, say 95deg (once again arbitrary for argument)

    In the third line I am showing how if you flattened it out you could restore the 150deg angle.
