You really couldn’t go wrong with any of those. Perhaps go with the Level 6 because it is the cheapest.

Of the shutter/horizon/ND, I’d pick the ND. Really good example of the U profile. Haven’t tried the d10 or level 6.

Parser and Origami are both pretty great.

You might want to look into Topyo, they are a really good brand that is quite affordable as well.

The Shutter is a throw that most everyone should have at some point. It’s just a really solid budget metal.

I think the Shutter has the nicest balance of features while still retaining an H shape at its price point.

Shutter is a great all around yoyo. Was also my first metal unresponsive and it’s usually the throw I take with me places. However, if you can throw a few more dollars in and spring for the wide angle Shutter, I’ve heard it’s better than the original.

Save some $ and help out Nate Daley who just lost his house in Paradise CA.  
[ND Benefit sale](http://www.yoyofactory.com/yoyos/nd)

Hopefully that’s ok to link… - not trying to upset the powers that be here, but helps the OP and ND.

Excellent suggestions posted further up.

The ND is a solid choice too. Plays just like a Shutter.

eh, it’s wider and has a smoother shape - it’s also more focused in its design, lacking the fingerspin area and inner-grind-ring that the shutter have. I do prefer the ND, though I don’t regret getting a shutter at all. Lots of personal preference at play!
