Brass razors Vs stainless

Hi fellas,  just curious how many of you have both stainless and brass razors and of which one is your preference.

I actually prefer the weight of my hollow brass razors (Fatboy, Slim, Fatip, etc.) I have a stainless ATT, and I've signed up for passarounds on a couple of other stainless razors, so I'll let you know if that changes.

I’m thinking the difference is more reliant on the manufacture of the razor vs. the metal used when comparing brass and stainless.

I prefer stainless over bronze, brass, and even titanium. I own razors in all those materials, even a couple where I have razors from the same manufacturer in different metals. I think stainless is the perfect material for a razor. Ideal weight and properties for an amazing shave.

although i use both and they are all great in the end i would choose stainless as the perfect material for a safety razor.john

I prefer the look of a polished or brushed SS

I have razors of stainless and brass. Brass with plating and without. I prefer the feel of the plain brass. My stainless razors are great and are in the regular lineup, but the brass has a softer feel.

I had a brass razor once. I prefer the stainless steel feel on my face.

Have both. No difference.

I have razors made in all the materials available. I like how stainless and titanium are harder to tarnish. Titanium and brass does feel softer. I prefer stainless, followed by titanium, bronze, brass, and copper. My brass CG lvl 3 baseplate in antique finish is one of my favorites, but it just smells bad that I have to hold my breath when shaving the mustache area. I know metal doesn’t have a smell per se, but maybe brass attracts molecules faster than the other metals?
