    From a personal perspective, I tend to prefer high carbon steel.

    They both have their strengths and weaknesses.

    I really like the ease of care of the stainless, the edge retention is excellent. And they shave quite nice as well.

    But, I shaved with my W&B "celebrated fine India steel" the other day, and it indeed had a certain smoothness particular to carban steel.

    You're going to have to get at least one of each....
