my very simple shoulderless PUMA 81. Just shaves so well.
My very simple 5/8 Friodur is probably my second favorite.

I don't have a rotation per se. I normally shave with the same razor daily for months and months and then move on to another. I do have a few razors that make it back into my long shave durations.
Double Duck Dwarf spike point shaves me a lot each year.

whichever the last razor I restored was. Recently it is my Dubl Duck. The 'redheaded stepchild' of my flock has to be my Boker Edelweiss. Not sure why I don't shave with it more.
The one that happens to be in my hand when I'm in the throat area.
A C-Mon wedge. A Genco is a very close second.
A 6/8 Lockwood Bros. Hollow Ground Pampa, Sheffield. It has everything I like in a razor: oblique point (the best point,) 6/8 (the best size,) shoulderless single hollow grind (the best grind,) slight humpback and it's Sheffield steel. Also, it was one of the very first razors I bought (number three actually,) but it was the first fixer-upper I bought (the first two being NOS,) and was the very first razor I honed to truly shave-sharp.
Le Grelot half-hollow "Perle des Orients" I just finished restoring and have shaved with only once! What an edge, what a blade.
Of my 6, I have 2 favs that see far more shaving time than the other 4. One is a 5/8 W&B 1/2 hollow Bow that I bought from Dan (Floppyshoes); the other is a 5/8 Joseph Rogers 1/2 hollow.
