Exactly, I think with the angle of less than 90 degrees the Gem/Everready helps to lay the blade flatter to the face.
The test would be to fit an Astra into a Gem and go for it. :hmmm:

I just sat down at the computer after my 2nd shave with the Gem and the same SE blade that John sent me.
Just as comfortable as the first. :rock:
Same angle with both but it is easier to get closer to the face with the Gem/Everready because the angle of the razor is less than 90 degrees to start with.
Not the best pic but it shows somewhat an example of a Jem/Everready profile.
I think also referred to as "shovel head", not necessarily less razor head but more convenient angle.
