What you give up at a lower price
Cheaper backups use thinner or lower-grade steel and usually leave the tools to you. The security difference is smaller than the price gap suggests: a punched steel plate at $50 still survives a house fire that destroys paper.
Spend the money you save on a second backup for a second location. Two $50 plates in two places protect you better than one $190 plate in your desk drawer.
Frequently asked questions
What is the cheapest safe way to back up a seed phrase?
A punched stainless steel plate. The Keystone Tablet ($49) and SeedPlate ($50) both survive fire and water for less than the cost of a hardware wallet.
Is a $50 metal backup good enough?
Yes, for most people. A thick steel plate with punched marks survives the fires and floods that destroy paper. Titanium only adds a larger safety margin.
