Braze joints can actually be very strong, but it will always be only as strong as the filler material. Usually the material itself will tear as apposed to the bond coming apart. Key thing is getting the steel hot enough to melt the filler instead of the torch just melting filler onto the steel.
My dad built a 3-wheeled off road mini bike using nothing but brazing. That was in the 70's and it's still around, not a single joint failed.
