Parker Variant been getting good reviews. Think of that instead of the Progress. Most folks have said that the Feather is on the mild side and so if you are wanting a mild razor, get that. If you are not sure if you prefer a mild, mid, or aggressive razor, go with the Variant and try out the different settings.
I actually have have both razors. I'm a big fan of adjustables as I can dial them up and down to properly shave trouble/sensitive areas, and I can extremely adjust for multiple days growth or if I'm shaving too soon after a "rough" shave and still have some sensitivity. Having said that, the AS-D2 is an excellent shaver and IMO is better quality. It does deliver a nice smooth, though milder shave. If I had to choose to keep only one, it would be the Feather.I am soon to buy a new razor and need some input. It's between a Merkur Progress long handle and the Feather AS-D2 (money is not a problem). Pros and cons and no saying buy both please!

Once the technique is bedded into muscle memory (in the same way as using a straight) a 'mild' razor will cut anything just as well as an easier to use aggressive one.
