Curious about the Tech, does whether or not it's gold matter? I see a lot of gold ones that are priced about the same.It will happen with practice.
One thing to keep in mind is that we've all been where you are and had to find our way.
Lots of good points already made but I would emphasize working on your technique rather than acquiring a bunch of stuff while chasing the perfect shave.
The Tech is a fine razor, one of my favorites, and perfectly capable of delivering a superb shave. I just bought (another) pre-war Tech in great shape on Ebay for 10 bucks, plus shipping.
Whichever razor you choose, try to stick with it for a bit. Use the same blade, soap, brush, and prep. If it's really not working, change one variable and test the results for a bit before changing again.
As others have stated (from experience) technique is king and your shaves WILL improve over time.
