If you want to take a walk on the vintage side, I'm Gillette a big Gillette Tech fan. The Post-War Fat Handle Tech offers excellent blade support (no blade 'chatter'), minimal blade feel, highly nimble & maneuverable, and, when used steep with minimal & appropriate pressure, medium+ efficient, highly smooth and medium+ effective.
