Inspired by the wildly successful Bull Mastiff design, here's my modular handles.
Each handle barrel has a 5/16 brass core and sleeved with exotic hardwoods.
This proto type is Bolivian Rosewood and is shown with 3 different knobs.
The handle can be made any length the client desires.

Fluted knob.
Knurled Knob.

I got my Bull Mastiff from Bob yesterday. It is so good that I am going to watch for his other creations and buy them as well.

I think that happens quite often! I first bought a matching brush/razor set from Bob and since ordered a Bull Mastiff with two handles. I'm sure it's not the end of my contributions to Bob's wallet! Originally Posted by akhorosh

That Bull Mastiff is awesome, the 'no pressure' rule takes a whole new angle! What will be at the end of the handle? Originally Posted by SlagleRock

Mine has a recently replated NEW head. I have the standard Bull Mastiff knob as well as a custom Black and White Ebony knob to math my custom set from Bob. I think I'll be using a 7 O'clock Yellow Blade tomorrow. Originally Posted by Luc

Got my Amboyna Burl handle today and she's beautiful. Bob I don't know which post office you use but they don't mess around, she got here in lightning fast time. I can't wait to shave today.

I've added a diamond knurled knob option to my composite handles.
These handles aren't hollow, the wood blank is epoxied to a 5/16th brass rod before turning.
The knob and spindle are then attached to the barrel with stainless steel threaded rod.
This give the handles a nice heft (87-91 grams depending on the wood with a new head) that you just can't get with a hollow handle.
Prices are $40 for the regular wooden handles, $45 for Burl wood.
Heads are $25 for the NEWS, $20 for Old Style and Tech.
Knob options are spiral knurling, diamond knurling, fluted or matching wood.
