Steel is steel and most likely what we have now is better quality, tempering, and heat treating is way better now...
I think the difference is in the grinding process...
Does anyone actually know how the old DD's Filli's etc: were ground...
I have seen and touched the machines that I
think were used after the turn of the century... I see everything now is done with belts even TI and Dovo.. Were the older razors done on Stone grinders????? those are the machines I have seen... If that is true then I would guess that is where the difference comes from...
Then again I could be wrong
