The angle is easier to find than on any other shavette I've tried because the blades are very sturdy, yet the spine is thin (think geometry of a DE shavette with blade quality of a Feather AC shavette). It's really as close to a hollow ground as you can get, arguably even better, depending on your preferences (the coated blades glide better than a straight ever could, if that's important to you).

I think it's because they are open blades. The learning curve is real and the nicks are of a different "quality" than when learning safety razors 😅
