For me, I started my journey with DE razors; all of them gave me a good enough shave; better than any cart, but I did get some tugging specially on the upper lip area, and depending on the razor, some slight irritation on my neck. Due to a combination of rad, and wanted to get that perfect bbs, I kept reading about and trying new razors until I stumbled upon my timeless TI68 which yields a perfect effortless shave. But since happiness tents to be a fleeting and fragile thing, I tried my timeless with a brand of blades that does not use wax dots in the wrapper since they tend to make the razor stick if I happen to leave the blade in it over night. I then concluded that blade rigidity is what does it for me, so I went myself and got a wunderbar which solved that issue except for the fact that the high profile head and the way the blade sticks out, it makes for some awkward angles and maneuvering around the nose, and chin areas, so I jumped on the SE train with the Hawk v3 which is my daily, but I wanted more options since my lonely SE razor looked sad next to my DEs, so I went and got an OREN which was on sale, and although the shave is good, it is not as good as the v3 hawk. Now I was waiting for Blackland to re-stock the Vector, and Bullgoose had to release this shiny object that I could not resist. So basically here is the why I prefer SE razors as they just work better for me due to the thicker blades.
On a side note, as if the world was not cruel enough as it is; a day after making the purchase, Blackland announced that the Vector will be back in stock by the end of the month
