I'd love to have one of these.
Can you alter the design to mimic a M-16 shell casing? :D
Actually, size-wise it would be closer to a 50-cal.
Something like this...but knurled.

Don't see why not
 
Hi,

I like the look of the one you describe as a different take on a bulldog handle.
Can you do one in 100mm with a 15mm diameter please?

Thanks

Sorry about that. Fingers don't know what buttons they're pressing half the time! :blush:

I'll PM you shortly. Thanks.
 
That's not a handle ... THIS is a handle:

Stainless Steel, 100mm x 20mm custom handle made by Iain fitted to the iKon slant with the original handle alongside for comparison purposes.

Gave me the best, smoothest, BBS shave EVER. Three passes with an Astra blade, no cuts or nicks and just letting the razor do the work. Feels great in the hand and is probably the best thing I have ever bought as a result of being a member of TSR. Iain is a genius!

Crikey, that's a big 'un! Do you keep by the front door and use it to beat off the local toerags? You could do some damage with that but it is a beauty nonetheless.
 
I received my templ8 handle from Iain yesterday.

He made it for the special thread of a Fatip which is not quite the same as other handle threads. It fits the Fatip head just right and securely so no more worries about cross-threading.

I tried it out this morning and I must say it completely changed the feel of the shave. It feels a lot less "wobbly" than its thin cousin and made me feel much more in control of the shave.
It actually feels safer with a big handle; as the Fatip can be a cruel mistress.

This is the upgrade my Fatip has long been waiting for, thanks to Iain.

Received mine today aswell :D

Well built and provides great heft :)

Can't wait to give it a shot.

Paired it with my R41 :)
