The mildest razor available?

I am curious as to which razor out there may be considered or is the most mild razor out there to be had.
I have a fat handled Tech and I hear lots of people say that it is among the mildest. I gave my blue tip another chance today with a Feather and got a much nicer shave than my Tech. Was the blue meant to be milder than the tech? I thought the Tech was supposed to be about as mild as it gets.
Let your thoughts fly.
 
Mildest?

My list (in order of mildrdy to a little more mild)

Gillette Super Adjustable set on 1
Feather AS-D1
Schick Krona
Merkur Progress set to 1
PILS 101ne
Gillette Tech

The blue tip is the same razor as the red tip and the normal weight flare tip. The only difference between these is the weight of the handle (blue has an aluminum light handle, standard flare tip has the normal weight, and red tip has a heavy handle). A lighter handle makes the razor set lighter so it "appears" milder.
 
I'm pretty sure the Red Tip, standard Superspeed, and Blue Tips all have different blade gaps, as well. I have a bakelite slant that weighs next to nothing, and I assure you the light weight doesn't make it feel any less aggressive!:biggrin1:
