Bob's yahoo site is still online if anyone wants to see the work he did.

A few nice flash slide shows of custom razors and brushes can be watched

Must be the accent?

I surfed his site many, many times but was too stupid to order one. I really wish I had purchased one of those handles. Beautiful work.

Thankfully I got in on the UFO handles before the long layoff. I hope Rafael gets back to making handles soon.

Man he made some awesome looking handles!!

These are mine. First is Bob's picture and the crapy one is taken by myself.




If I only bought more with long comb NEW heads.

Heresy, those are gorgeous. I'm particularly fond of the one in the top picture with the flare bottom. I always wanted to get one of those, but failed to order one. Sigh.

Thanks, kingfisher.

Initially this was one of a kind, custom made for a customer as a mixture of three iconic Gillette razors. Top part of the double ring, bottom part of the first Aristocrat with the bell handle, the middle part I have forgotten. I fell in love at first sight when I saw it in Bob's thread and asked Bob, if he could make me a copy of this beauty. Sorry to the initial buyer, who had all the work to create her.

I visited Bob several times, he was an artist with wood and metal. RIP Bob, a fine man gone too soon.

Ebony wood. I still use this most days after 3 years. Its the best handle I've come across due to perfect weighting and control. Sadly, there is a hole in the razor handle market for handles like these. Not sure how I'd replace it.

It is extremely satisfying to see that the legend lives on in this new context. Quality never goes out of style, I guess.

Someone on here had him make a duplicate to the turned wooden handle on their gem junior bar lather catcher out of metal. It was completely awesome.

One of my favorites. I need to take a family portrait of everyone

The Parker Variant seems to be inspired by this.
