Brother Toboggan,
This is a pretty yeasty and informative thread you have going! A lot of good info! My fav's are the Red Tip, the Barbasol FH, the 1946-47 Aristocrat, and pretty much any adjustable razor.
I would not sell any of the razors you have bought so far. They all are keepers. The day will come when you will want to try them again.
As to the Futur being ugly. You don't shave with "ugly." So you don't care. You do shave with a well engineered razor, which the Futur is.
I find the Red Tip to be very effective, and not necessarily aggressive. I think the weight of the handle is the secret.
Much more to share, but the wife is calling me . . . Sorry 'bout that.
