weber was shorter and the new ikon was longer.Congrat's But Weber was a better choice, Product wise, and Customer Service wise. IMHO
I have an Ikon razor and like it, but if I'm buying a handle I go to Bobs Razorworks. Nae problems with any of the four I own
The new Ikon 85mm Bulldog handle is the best of the bunch...IMO. Matches well with anything that it threads onto. Well worth the money, not all the do they have it or not drama of Weber, and very good customer service with quick delivery. Ikon site tells you how many are available. Try that with Weber.
