I did use one daily....back when I shaved.
Carbon steel will be cheaper, but require a fairly significant amount of attention. I sharpened mine every 3 months or so along with about 30 licks on the strop before each shave and occasionally a little stropping in the middle of a shave if it had been a while.

Stainless razors require way less attention, but are a pain in the but to sharpen when it is needed.
