@Chico Winterton is the Rx the only AC SE you have used?Well we all very different are we not? The SE experiment simply was not satisfactory for me at all and I really wanted it to be. Despite lots of prep, changing of angles, lots of blade types and really trying to make it work I never got a great shave, I perhaps got one or two reasonable shaves but most were poor. Getting 2 shaves from a blade also detracted from the experience. The Asylum for me was a fantastic thing to look at but I would have got a better shave from a disposable Bic, had it have been the same price as a Bic I would have thrown it away.
I ask this because I also found the Rx to blunt these blades unacceptably quickly. See my feedback on the pass-around: http://www.atgshaving.com/threads/asylum-rx-finished.3564/page-14
My recommendation would be to buy yourself a Colonial General: https://colonialrazors.com/collections/frontpage/products/the-general
they are cheap (for what you get) and provide an outstanding shave for 90% of those who have tried it. If you like your razor on the heavy side then wait for the restock of the stainless steel version: https://colonialrazors.com/collecti...eral-316l-stainless-steel?variant=52285304774
In my experience these razors ensure the AC SE blades live up to the hype.
