Silver steel
I recently purchased a razor which advertised itself as being made out of "silver steel"...being relatively new to SR's it has me wondering if one form of popular SR steel is really better than another?

Silver steel takes a nice edge and hones easy. I believe it is pretty common for Solingen made blades.

uprootedtraveler,
'Silver Steel' now refers to high carbon steel :
Silver steel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Many moons ago (ca. 1820s), Michael Faraday formulated a steel alloy that did contain a small amount of silver. However, today, 'silver steel' contains no silver.
Have fun !
Best regards
