Open Comb Heads?

[chrisbell]

There was a really good research article on B&B regarding different heads, angles and blade exposure. If someone knows the address or can be bothered to google - you'll like it.
But to answer your question shortly - yes It's more like a straight.

Is this the thread you were thinking of?

Good article. I really need to work on my technique with some of the older razors as I feel I have to give them a chance before selling.

That's it, thanks Chris.

A corking article! Explains some of the OH MY GOODNESS ME! moments I have putting on AS after shaving with my long comb New's. It's handy knowing what bit of your technique to concentrate on.
