Seeking Advice for Gifting a Quality Safety Razor Within a $50 Budget

I'm looking for a special gift for my father, a safety razor that balances quality and affordability, as I'd like to keep it under $50. He's not a novice to the art of wet shaving, though it's been quite some time since he last used a safety razor. With the numerous options out there, I'd appreciate personal experiences and recommendations on models that have proven to be reliable and provide a comfortable shave. Are there any particular vintage or modern safety razors that stand out for their performance in this price range? I'm also interested in understanding the differences in shave quality between the various brands mentioned like Edwin Jagger, King C. Gillette, and Rockwell, especially in terms of blade alignment and handle ergonomics. Any tips on what to look for in a safety razor that will make the transition back to wet shaving seamless for him?
