oh yeah! 
Wow..that's a tough one!
Would have to be a Gillette S/C common bar because I get nice close shaves and a simple design.

Parker Variant. Prior to this it was the Merkur Long Handle Progress. I also enjoy open comb razors, but get the best, irritation-free shaves from adjustables.
Rockwell 6s with #4 base plate.
'46/'47 Aristocrat.
I could live with one blade. One razor is tougher. Favorite at this time is a NEW Deluxe Big Boy.
That's a hard choice. For DE razors it would be my Fatip Piccolo.
Excellent razor!

Not me. Unless just maybe it was an old wedge blade like a Rolls and I had a nice hone and strop. I change blades far too often to use one blade for life unless you know something about my lifespan and aren't telling me.

I'd rather grow a beard than limiting myself to use just one DE razor! 
Almost impossible choice but if I could have only one along with my choice of blade, a Ball End Tech loaded with a Feather. This is based on my somewhat limited experience with a few different Gillettes and my EJ89. I own and use a '64 Super Speed and it was about that vintage and model when I first started shaving in the mid-60's so that would be a close second but maybe with a different blade than a Feather.
Gillette OLD type!

Well, this is a tough question...since for me, I've found what works extremely well: first two passes with my Fat Boy set on 3, and then a follow-up with an Atra. If I had to choose only one, I'd stay with the Fat Boy.
