Handmade Safety Razor Handles. Opinions needed.

[milogciachez]

Dear B&B'ers.
There's a good friend of mine that hand builds with his lathe a variety of safety razor handles with flawless craftsmanship, or at least that's my opinion.
Actually, we are interested in knowing your thoughs about his work, so I've decided to upload some pictures and ask you to leave some words about them.
They will be much appreciated.
The handles are made of three types of materials: Stainless Steel 316L grade (most of them), Brass and Bronze, they are easily recognizable in the pictures.
Thanks in advance.

Those look really sweet, but I can't give definitive feedback until I've tried one so you will probably have to send that two toned one my way for a good testing

They look nice enough but I would want to read some hands on reviews before making up my mind.

Very nice looking. They resemble the vintage Gillette Bulldog. My favorite is third from left in first picture. I'd pay around $45-$60 somewhere around the Weber and the ikon.

Those are gorgeous!

By the way, in English that's a "handle", not a hand. Easy mistake to make....

Please excuse my bad English

Hello,

I am a Spanish user from another forum and have one of these handles. It has a perfect finish, grip and balance... and it's heavy also. Hopefully, I will have an entire Spanish razor made by the artisans of the forum.

From the pictures the handles look beautiful and solid. If those where made available to a US vendor I would but one.

The handles are weighty, I will ask my friend about the exact weight

[Solopedro]

I got the first version U1 and is 73 grams. Goes perfect with heads such as R41, Gillette New, R89, even with the Feather ASD1. Is 316L and handcrafted in his garage.

Do they want to twist in the hand? Look great, btw!

Beautiful knurling, I've been looking for a handle with that type design. Contact me when they go into production. Regards, Chiefmate

Does cooncatbob have a double life in Spain that we don't know about?

Oh, and those are beautiful!

I've been looking for a 2nd razor. I'll take one, How much?

[garrapatero]

As they say colleagues, is a very balanced handle that is perfect multiple head types, here I teach a New Gillette head, a very good combination.

[bluesbishop]

I want that first handle! Gorgeous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[drawonme]

Count me in!

I think the third from the left in solid bronze would be awesome! Heavy, and solid. Let me know if he starts to sell them here.
