    Default carbon or stainless, any thoughts?

    Hi everyone, I haven't visited this site for awhile because I've been forced to return to crappy disposable razors for awhile (don't ask) but am now preparing to get my only straight razor honed, so as to return to the joy of a straight razor shave, and realized it wouldn't be a bad idea to pick up another razor so I can have a backup. Now the question. I wanted to hear some people preferences on razor steal and perhaps why. I currently have a carbon steal Dovo, just an entry level classic black. I like it well enough, but wondered if anyone recommended upgrading to stainless steal, and if that is actually an upgrade. any thoughts at all on preference of blade, and also if anyone can recommend any other kind of blades for around 100 bucks, give or take. Thanks in advance. I miss a close shave...
