Surgeon’s tools are made of surgical stainless steel. The reason why it does not rust is because it has, if any at all, very low amounts or iron in it.
Iron is what oxidizes in metal to give it that red rust. The higher amount of chromium in stainless steel is what gives it its better strength.
No it is not just for the looks and ease of cleaning. Stainless steel is exactly what the name implies. A steel alloy that extremely resists rusting and most material will not stain the metal.

You most likely have seen iron and steel that was very rusty so would you like your tableware made of that material. Eating food with a very rusty spoon would not be what I would like.
