Thread: Shaving geometry

When I consider "cutting angle," I'm usually thinking in terms of the drawings below. I posted about this once before, calling it a guillotine type angle. I think this is also important, in addition to angling the blade away from the skin.

I've found that the angles below, when incorporated into your shaving technique, really help in providing a smooth, comfortable shave.
