I just purchased a Dovo Silver Steel razor. It has ebony scales and gold plating on the spine and one side of the blade. I'd review the razor, but I'm too much of a noob. I shaved for the first time with this razor this morning and lived to tell the tale.
My question concerns the "Silver Steel." I've tried to find out what this is actually made of. Wikipedia states that it is a steel of a certain carbon content, although doesn't compare it to the carbon content in other carbon steel.
Can anyone explain to me what properties I can expect from a "Silver Steel" blade? Is it just carbon steel with a fancy name?
