Believe it or not, many devette aficionados use a steep angle, including moi. Admittedly, in really tricky places, I go shallow to prevent skipping, nicks, etc.
No takers yet. Do you want me to hang onto this for a while longer or are you ready to have it back?
Please read Rule #4 in this post:

When we finally run out of people who want to try this razor, it will belong to the last person ...
We have a taker. I expect it to go out Monday when the wife makes her trip to UPS.
Received. Won't be shaving tonight, but maybe tomorrow night.
Ok, I managed to squeeze in a shave tonight. Last shave I started shallow angle and then remembered to try steep angle, but this time I remembered right from the start. Worked great WTG, but ATG needed shallow angle to avoid skipping.
Anyway, I probably could have done WTG and XTG and gotten a better shave than a regular DE with 3-4 passes + buffing + touch-up. After the second pass (ATG cheeks, XTG neck) I had a better shave than I've had in a long time. Sweet.
