Came across these the other day. Similar in design to the old 1920's Dunhill 'carbon cutters,' or the modern Dunhill 'Professional reaming set.'
The Dunhill Carbon Cutter came in 3 sizes, marked 1, 2, and 3. The modern Dunhill set also comes in 3 sizes, a 15mm, 17mm, and 19mm. The old Dunhill's can be found for about $60 each, and the size 3 tends to be a little more expensive than that, as well as rarer. The modern Dunhill set is about $800.
The Oldi came in multiple sizes as well. 13, 15, 17, 19, and 22mm. They are usually stamped "OLDI"/"reg. 1954/Denmark/"size #," though they tend to have various bits of the above inscription missing, including size #'s. Below is a set of 13, 15, 17, 19, and 22mm OLDI reamers, plus duplicates of each. (Not mine, I'm afraid).
I did buy a set of 2, plus another set of two. Sizing is uncertain, so I may have wound up with duplicates of the 15mm and 19mm, ...we'll see.
Anyone ever used these or the Dunhill's? Are they any good? Figured the price wasn't too dear, so no great loss if they don't work as well as my current reaming setup.
