Old Timor "Special" (Way before the new grinds out, they used to make a decent razor)
Kamisori fixed blade. I have no idea what it say on it, but it keeps a serious edge.
My most comfortable shaver is my J Waostenholm EBRO. As far as edge retention, just about any of my American blades and my vintage Bismark fit the bill quite well.
Revisor would be the best. Filly right up there to.
Believe it or not, a Chronik is probably the sharpest , 'best' , I've got. OTOH, I've got too many to really make the call. Rotate through too many too often to really judge. That Chronik blew my mind though, it was so good. Anyway, I believe most all quality razors, correctly honed, are close in performance. If not equal, certainly close to it. YMMV.
