I don't really pay much attention to the angle. I put the top cap on my face with the handle parallel to the ground and lower it until it catches, which seems to be right before the teeth touch my skin. I'm not sure how good I am at keeping that exact angle, but it's at least where I start. I adjust as I shave based on how well it's cutting.
I start out with a shallow (handle further away from the face) angle for the first pass, then make it more steep (handle closer to the face) for the second pass. Both passes with as little pressure as possible.
Whenever I go to shave, I assume there’s someone else on the planet shaving, so I say “I’m gonna go shave, too.”

The only other razors that come close to my Blackbirds efficiency and closeness are Charcoal Good Lvl3, Weber PH, and Paradigm Ti first gen.
Would you say that one/all of the is/are smoother than BB?
