I don't doubt that a number of people get good results from a shallow or a steep shaving angle. However, I have to wonder if it is a function of the razor more than anything else?
If you look at literature from vintage Gillette razor ads and instruction sheets, it is clear that they intended their razors to be used with a neutral shaving angle. Gillette spent no small amount of time and effort developing their shave head geometry. In some cases their literature clearly states that the neutral shaving angle, indicated by a diagram, is the right shaving angle.
Those who prefer a steep or a shallow shaving angel angle, do you find that also to be true for you for the vintage Gillette razors like the Super Speed, Fatboy, or Slim?
