Thought I would start the thread for these as I just received mine.

That's nice. I am surprised that this thread has not been started before. Here is mine. I really like it. I have a good blade that twhite honed for me. I like shaving with the wedge. It is coming up in my rotation in a couple of weeks for Lather Catcher Sunday.

I made a case for mine since it did not have one.

I have this razor, but I don't know which version it is. After two shaves I still have several doubts about how to use it. Let me preface this by saying that I have vintage MK blades sharpened by a well-known Italian craftsman.
I am used to a combination that for some might seem extreme: Mühle R41 head and Feather blades. My hand is therefore used to that angle and level of sharpening.
I found this razor and these blades much gentler, but I can't get a bbs. I can't find a sufficient angle to sweep my hair away as I do with R41.
Can you give me some advice on what is the most effective angle to shave?
