I know there have probably been numerous discussions on this topic here already but I wasn't able to find any threads using the search feature. I've been using an injector straight razor with merkur blades for over a year now and I am planning on switching to a real straight. I was just wondering what the pros and cons are for a stainless vs carbon steel. There seems to be a lot of conflicting information floating around. some say stainless is a harder material so it is more difficult to hone, while others say it is actually softer than carbon steel. Does anyone have experience with both types of razors?
Thanks
