The angle is easier to find than on any other shavette I've tried because the blades are very sturdy, yet the spine is thin (think geometry of a DE shavette with blade quality of a Feather AC shavette). It's really as close to a hollow ground as you can get, arguably even better, depending on your preferences (the coated blades glide better than a straight ever could, if that's important to you).

Is this a lucky coincidence or epic nerd humour from you that you post shave number 522 (HTML error code for "connection timed out") with this blade 4 days late? π

Bummer to read that. I think I'll still have to try it, though π
@sgrdddy
Thanks, good to hear your take as well. I completely neglected the premium house brush discussion on the sub and here, apparently.
I've now ordered a non-xs Zenith horse, and it's 50 % horse mane, 50 % pony tail. I may have to try an xs too, later onπ
@PorkButtsNTaters666
This amuses me, in all my time in this hobby (only 3 years, but still) I've only ever heard bad things about horse brushes, and the only one I've tried personally was a shitty cheap vie-long one, so I completely bought the antihype.
Looking forward to trying a Zenith one after #AustereAugust
@sgrdddy
I think it's because they are open blades. The learning curve is real and the nicks are of a different "quality" than when learning safety razors π
