    If they were made in India they may have been made out of British steel (sic)

    Zeepk is part of the cheap razor syndrome. Usually inexpensive , generally in the $10 range, often describe as surgical grade stainless steel. Some dealers with questionable motives and mothers who sleep with gonorrhea infested terrorists will sell them for a whole lot more – and occasionally someone buys them. List starts as Zeepk, Steel Warrior, Master, Krieger, - this list not inclusive by any means. Search this site, plenty of info on this subject. The steel in the blades so junky that as one sharpens them towards a useful shaving edge, the metal just crumbles and will not take an edge. A no win situation if you know how to sharpen, hone, strop and shave. Just plain old beat your head on the wall frustration if you are a beginner and can’t possibly know it is not your fault.

    A couple of observations.

    Zeepk.... made in India, cheap..... kinda like Hyundai in the early days except that Zeepk does not seem to be striving to become better and that is sad, very sad.

    The other observation is that at one time "Finest India Steel" actually meant it was made from quality materials, and not second rate black licorice as it does today regarding Zeepk.

    Regards
