Stainless Steel will rust when exposed to sal****er. Even surgical grade SS
especially if it is the lower quality stuff stamped "made in Pakistan".
That stuff can barely be resterilized without corroding

From what I've read, only the highest quality surgical steel will
stand up to sal****er, and not permanently, either.
