Ooh... this may kick up a bit of a debate, but IMHO, it doesn't really matter. A good carbon blade will shave well. A good stainless blade will shave well. And crappy carbon and stainless blades will not.

Either of those two razors will serve you well (and coming from SRD they will be truly shave-ready), so it is really an aesthetic decision. If you like the design of the Ebony Stainless more than the Best Quality, then go for it. You don't want to embark on this journey with regrets right off the bat! On the other hand, if you like the look of them both, you can go for the Best Quality and treat yourself to some other goodies.

But either will work.
