Now you know why they are named Red Imps :-)
I've got a 4/8 heljestrand with a bit of a french tip that can bite. It's like it's got Little Razor Syndrome & is overtly aggressive to make up for it's small size. It is perfectly formed though, i will add!
I've never had a problem with my Imps but I do have a Clauss that nips at me every time I use it. I have 4 Clauss straights that are square points and one the one nips at me. A good part of my collection is square points and there are only a rare few that nip at me every time I use them. Remember, each razor has a personality a little different from the next. ;)
really square points and spikes are a different animal. There are variations to both but in general a square point is more forgiving and some are more rounded off while a true spike like the red imps do extend out a tad and they can really get you if your attention gets lax. However, its still not as bad as a traditional Japanese razor with the short blade and a spike at either end. Hijo!
Some times I like them a little bad :w
