A somewhat interesting concept. You should enter this idea at the following site...Wouldn't it be nice if a razor blade manufacturer came out with a slanted blade so it would basically make any DE a slanted razor

Been trying to wrap my mind around this. I don't think it would be possible.

Wouldn't the blade be either over exposed or under?
Maybe I'm missing something...

Well, the blade would probably have to be pre-curved, or at least cut on some sort of diagonal. Sounds like it would be difficult to manufacture and grind, or at least would be too complicated to be worth it. Interesting idea tho.
Uneven exposure would be an issue too, I would think.
Give 'em a try

Or... You could just buy a slant?
+1 to this. Since the head of the slant is what makes it a slant, this idea, I'm sorry to say, is not possible.
True. The Slant razor induces a radial twist to the blade, which then provides more of a shearing action of the blade to the whisker. The radial twist is a result of the geometry of the head of the slant razor, not the blade.

Yeah....I read this thread before lunch, then had a couple of pints, and I'm sad to say that it doesn't seem any more sensible with a bit of a buzz on.
Get a slant.
Get a slant.
Was anyone else expecting a 'There-I-Fixed-It'-type blog? I'm both disappointed AND hungry after following that link
Sorry, I misremembered the link. Please my apologies.
Here is the one I was referring to...http://www.halfbakery.com/
I'll fix it in my earlier thread.

If the blade was slanted, wouldn't a regular DE just straighten it out anyways?
