Best Ultra-Mild DE or SE?

The absolute most mild razor in my collection is a vintage Russian DE razor called the Ruby, or Rubie. It looks a lot like a Super Adjustable clone but shaves completely different from my Super Speed. Its an adjustable and even on its most aggressive setting it is very mild.
 
I appreciate the suggestions, but I’m specifically asking about recently invented razors that are a part of the ultra-mild and comfortable era. If you’ve used the mild AL13 or Supply SE, you’ll know what I mean.
I know what you mean.

Rockwell plate 1 or 2. Believe me. It’s milder than the Henson (plate 1 for sure).

There’s no other razor as gentle as those 2 Rockwell plates. Specially plate 1.

No tech, blue tip, ej89 (no way!), merkur etc… none….

Plate one and a sharp blade is the mildest thing you’ll find in the DE world.
 
I just recently got a Henson AL13 (mild version) and Supply SE. I loved how great my face felt after shaving with both razors, though I think I’m beginning to favor the Supply SE. Any other suggestions for ultra-mild and comfortable DEs or SEs? I also have the Feather AS-D2, but that razor has fallen out of favor with me.
The King C. Gillette is a very mild DE razor. Works well for me. Lots of posts on it here to help you decide if it's right for you.

Did you every try an Above The Tie with M1?
 
Vintage gear is often overlooked, the truth is some of the Old Vintage Gear is a great value.

Some people even spend money to Restore & Replate as they understand Vintage works well with modern blades.
You could probably find a Gillette tech for $6-$10 at a thrift shop somewhere, if $ is tight.
 
Just shaved with the Razorock Mamba .70 this morning for the first time in more than a year. I really enjoyed the shave. I've avoided both the Mamba and Game Changer because of the posts being on the wrong plate for easy blade loading. It does shave well, though.

Have you tried Rockwell’s adjustable razor, the T2? Is it similar to plate 1 or 2 in terms of mildness and comfort on the lower settings?

My experience as well. Never found anything more comfortable than Rockwell 6S.

Close, but not quite there: Yaqi Remus/Romulus and Schick G1
