The razor is simply a modern marvel! It's construction with all its pieces is mind boggling. I really like the mechanics of it.
I started off shaving my face at a steep angle, not my preferred angle, due to lack of an actual cap. The shave seemed a lot like the AC system, not as efficient as I like but something I could work with. I managed a nice BBS shave after putting in the necessary work.
I wasn't going to shave my head with it at first but after learning of its mild nature, I went all in. I started the head shave carefully at a steep angle as well and again was reminded of the AC razors. Something told me to go as shallow as possible and so I did and...(((GOOD NIGHT IRENE!))) What a difference.
So I put the flat part of the razor flat on my head and tilted slightly to engage the blade. At first the shave seemed rough with the blade that shallow, but it was only the feeling of the blade try to cut through my dense hair, it was actually quite smooth. I finish with a my usually BBS results, had to touch some areas, tomorrow's shave should be better now that I have my plan of attack.
The shallowest angle that the razor allows you to get is probably the same angle for an efficient str8 razor shave.
It was not more efficient than my G bar, the guard bar is more in play on the G bar and I use that to my advantage. And I don't think the FHS-10 is quite as sharp as the GEM SS blade after today's shave.
I like the razor and am looking forward to tomorrow's shave.
