Zeepk products, any good?
Hey everyone! I'm new to straight shaving and well I'm looking into purchasing all the things neccesary to start. I've been looking online mostly on ebay and have found various sets made by zeepk. Are they any good? I've read that the accesories aren't worth the money but how about the razors? Also, for a straight edge razor is there a particular brand or kind that is best? thanks to everyone for your help. Any advice would be quite useful in my quest to start shaving!
