A little cooncatbob razor art

Here is my Bull Mastiff Ultra Lite in powdered black aluminum with a short combed New head : courtesy of master craftsman cooncatbob. This is an excellent combination and an outstanding shaver.

Very nice. Here's mine.

That handle almost looks vintage. Really cool!

Very nice looking. I like that contrast in the finish.

I have to get me one of those. Damn all you enablers.

I didn't know he could do black......how cool would my "improved" handle look with black painted grooves???? Hmmmmmmm

I'm thinking that black handle would look pretty sharp on a Weber....

WOW that's nice!!!

Looks Great!

Very nice, love the black with the chrome!

What exactly is the black coating? I'm curious about durability, it looks awesome.

If it is powder coat it would be a dry-applied paint that is then baked to melt and cure the powder. It is an industrial process that produces a very hard and durable finish.

Bob used to sell these but stopped because of quality control issues. I wonder if he found a new vendor?

Can some of you guys please post pics of your EJ89 with any of Bob's handles? If ya gottem, showem.

These handles were anodized Aluminum, the shop I was using had a huge minimum batch size and the whole batch had to be the same color.
This doesn't work with my business model of building to the clients specifications.
