All stainless steels have some iron in it, so even the corrosion resistant 300 series alloys in very small pieces may be able to be picked up with a magnet. The stronger 400 series alloy stainless steels, like 416 which many stainless steel barrels and knife blades are made of, have a high iron content and will stick to a magnet almost like steel. Try it.

the price for scrap SS non metallic  is about $1.00 lb , compared to magnetic SS at $0.12

had a commercial SS microwave scraped and only got $2.00 for it. the exterior  was magnetic.
