    never heard of it. google doesnt have much info either. 22$ is pretty good for 7 razors. if they are no good you could practice honing or reuse the scales.

    FWIW --

    Let's do the math:

    . . . One Fink razor costs $3.

    . . . One new razor from a "known-good" maker (Dovo, TI, Boker, etc) costs $80 (and up).

    Can Fink produce a good razor for $3 ? Somehow, I doubt it.

    It'll only be good for "learning honing" if it will keep a good edge. Many cheap modern razors will not keep an edge.

    Talking about Item number:190475641024 ? IME vintage Solingen made razors are usually good. I've seen Finck IIRC but I don't recall Fink. There were many obscure cutlery companies out there in the old days so they may be very good. A mismatched set though and some are smaller (4/8) than I like to shave with.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Looks to be a great deal to me, already up to 45.00, Dang if I had some extra Christmas money I'd bid 100.00 on those and probably still get outbid. Bet they go between 125 - 150 ?
