My suggestions, in no particular order
  • Stirling ST Stainless Razor
  • Stirling HA Stainless Razor
  • Micromatic Open Comb
  • EverReady 1924 Shovel Head
  • Fatboy on 9
  • Merkur Progress on 6.5 (any higher than that and the top cap isn't stable)
  • Rex Ambassador on 6.5
  • ATT H1 (this is probably the mildest on this list, but still has a decent amount of blade feel)
  • Merkur Futur on 6
  • PAA Ascension Twist Adjustable DOC
  • DSCosmetics Z0
I hear some of the Asylum and Diamondback razors are super efficient, too, but never tried any of those.

I'm guessing you're mostly looking for safety razors with blade feel, however if you love blade feel and are open to trying anything, either a shavette or straight fits the bill. They can be as mild as you want with a shallow angle. Give it a little tilt and you'll feel the blade.
