For me neutral to steepish angle. I prefer using a smoother blades over aggressive (Russian Gillette Platinum “Swedes” are my favorite.) It’s a nice razor but I keep finding the size and weight compared to the Razorock 37c takes away from the personality. The Razorock feels more agile and that allows the personality of how the razor cuts to stand out. The Yaqi uses weight and isn’t as engaging. Kind of like paddle shifters vs a manual transmission.
I'm using mine with a Ti Crown handle..... It's a very nice option for me... but YMMV, of course.
Think it’s just the weight of the head (I only use my Spanish UFO handles). It’s not a bad thing, but I think my justification for keeping razors is more for fun and unique vs. efficiency.
The stock handle appears lack grip and it is also a bit heavy. It felt better on the lighter, grippier handle.Recently tried the slope. I think people should look for a consensus of conclusions over a single one. I had to change my normal technique to a shallower approach with the slope but even with that I feel the 37c is smoother. The slope is a completely different beast than the ATT S1 but mine is the rare first year with the offset top cap. The ATT works better with a steep approach in comparison.
I think I'm the only one worldwide who likes it. I like the looks mainly with the Garnet end cap installed.
Yes, it is visually very appealing. But for nobody involved in the production or marketing to actually TRY the handle and arrive at our same conclusion is strange.
