I can recommend the Dovo razor. Mine is 10 years old, still shaves nice and is about $120-150. The expense came more in buying a nice staving brush, strop and sharpening stones. Also a nice soap is recommended.
I agree with other comments, nothing beats a straight razor shave. Once you get used using a straight razor they are also very fast, only takes me a few minutes to shave start to finish.
Not sure if it is too late to respond.
I converted to using a straight razor about 10 years ago and have not looked back. The trick for me was to take time learning how to use the razor. It took me over 2 months to gradually change over from disposable razors. Luckily no cuts.
With regards to sharping, although I prefer diamond plates for tools, I prefer water stones for sharpening the razor. Can recommend the Norton water stones as they are the same width as the razor and the same set of stones have worked well since I started using the razor.
