Slant vs blue tip/ball end tech point of reference

[bob.e]

There's a lot of talk about slants on the forum as of late I thought this picture might help people appreciate the difference between a slant and a regular razor. I've chosen two razors people on the forum are familiar with to show the difference. This is the Merkur Sledgehammer Slant pictured with a Gillette Blue Tip & Ball End Tech to give you a point of reference as pictures of the slant by itself give you no real idea what the razor is all about. BTW the Slant although aggressive is really no harder to shave with than it's two companions, you just need a bit more concentration at first to get the feel of it

The RAD voices are telling me Merker razors are next starting with a sledgehammer slant. Simply beautiful razor as are all of them.
