Failing that, either the Polsilver SI (not the fake ones) or Gillette Platinums.

Of the ones that I've used so far probably Nacets
Polsilver Super Iridium
One blade for the rest of your life? Sounds like the ultimate Excalibur challenge.

If I had to pick ONE...Astra SP. Good balance of sharp and smooth...especially on shaves 2+.
If I knew they would be around forever...the new Rockwell blades may reign supreme. Barring that-Astra SS (not SP). Albeit it is a subtle difference, I believe the SS is a smoother and easier-going shave but just as close as the SP affords
Gillette PermaSharp (Yellows).
Right now it's a toss-up between the Gillette 7 O'Clock Black and the Dorco Prime Platinum (STP-301).

Oh, and Bolzano deserves a place here, too.
This thread was about using only four blades for the rest of your life, right?
Polsiver. You can't shave with anything better so no point in dragging things on any more.

Nacet stainless
Racer - manufactured in Egypt by Lord.
I use Personna blues in everything, they have no glue, they're very sharp, but smooth, and they feel stiffer than some other DE blades. Add in that they're very reasonably priced and I won't use anything else.
One blade??? What's next? Suggesting we should pick one woman for the rest of our lives?
