Why are guillotine blades angular rather than rectangular shaped?

Guillotines chop heads. If you look at the guillotine blade, it is angled, with one side of the blade much higher than the other end. I would think the guillotine blade would be shaped more rectangular.

Next time you shave, if you can shave, angle the blade just slightly. Not as much as a guillotine, but just slightly.
