landscape edging - aluminum or steel?

greetings-

i'm building some winding gravel paths in my yard and looking for a durable edging product. i don't want to use plastic edging so i've been investigating either steel or aluminum edging.

it seems like the aluminum edging is the current rage and claims to be more durable than steel. i've also seen fiberglass edging out there that claims to be better than aluminum, plastic or steel.

i don't see steel edging being sold on-line or at my local home improvement store. i can imagine that if it was sold on-line the shipping would be quite costly.

so currently i'm leaning tword the aluminum edging and lookign at 2 particular brands-

ShurLOC

or
Permaloc

has anyone used either and have any tips/reccomendations?

if i wanted to find steel edging, where would i look @ the Chicagoland area?
