...Let's be honest - our bathrooms aren't exactly tough industrial environments...
Brass is heavier than stainless and doesn't feel as cold, and copper alloys absorb heat more quickly. Rinse under warm water = warm brass razor.

SS is much harder to machine and to polish. It takes more time and effort to get rid of tool marks. Dull and broken cutters + extra labor = more expensive.Is brass easier to machine than SS, which is why the latter are more expensive?
For my other hobby - guitars, I've been going through a Ry Cooder phase recently and I've bought a few slides in the last few years. Generally, the brass variant over a SS one will be more expensive.
So what relevance does this whether SS razors are worth the wonga or not?
I genuinely have no idea, but it's that kind of day so I will post my inane ramblings.
there is better materials, better engineering and possibly better thought in to the DE Razor of today.
