3 is really hard for me as I have many in rotation that I like for many reasons but the ones that always seem to wow me when they come up, in no particular order.
Barbasol floating head - Aggressive but not overly so and still smooth. Getts DFS and darn near BBS with 2 WTG passes and no irratation.
Mergress XL - Same as the floating head with the added benefit of being able to adjust to the blade being used.
RFB (NEW and 77/88 family) - Again I have alot of razors I like but in the open comb family they seem to strike the best balance between aggressive and smooth and I'm never sorry I picked it up and shaved with it.
Trying to list from here starts to boggle my mind, so many I like. Definatly have had great shaves with the Aristocrats including the President and Diplomat, the Toggle and Slim can adjust to a good shave with most any blade and mood, the 40's and Flair tip Superspeeds are good little shavers and so is the Triangle Slot Tech, the Red Tip, the Single Ring, the Big Fellow and Big Boy, the Eclipse razor, the Tradere razor and on and on and on. You get the point. All I can say is keep trying them, buy it, try it and if you don't like it or if it's not for you pass it on or sell it. It's all part of the fun.

2) R41: For some immediate feed-back concerning my overall skill level.
3) Futur: If a "no drama" BBS is required.
