Doesn't matter. Guillotines with a slit were designed to account for the dulling of the blade. Without the slit, it'd be less effective; but for one-time use, it wouldn't matter, its still a sharpy blade weighing several pounds coming down on your immobilized neck.
Its only after the 10th neck and non-stop usage does the blade start to get dull and the guillotine really relies on the slit for forced precision to get the job done.

Tag notes: Character's name is Samantha Grey, artist is Nitrotitan.
*chuckles* My my, hadn't expected to see this one filter around again. And yes, the bindings are to make sure she doesn't cast a spell before he chops her head off.

Definitely not behind, as the blade is flush to the front of the wood. I suppose that it's pretty thin, so it could go in front, but what would keep it on a straight trajectory? In fact, there are no grooves in the side poles, so it wouldn't work to begin with. At least not well. Unless...
Unless that line down the middle of the far pole is a groove, and not a corner, and we're only being given a 2D view of it. In that case, however, it appears that the blade would indeed come down in the center of the restraining block...
The real question though is, how did he get her head through a solid blood of wood in the first place?

^It's a corner, without a doubt. Look at the color contrast a little below the blade.
And about that question: if you take notice of the geometry, it looks like the head had already been separate from the rest of the body, and he simply glued them to the plank from both sides - kinda awry at that.
