Gillette Ball End Replica Handle - Universally Threaded Billet Brass Factory Nickel

SKU: BE-Replica

Description

Introducing a new product fro Razor Emporium, one that has been much needed in the world of vintage wet-shaving. Gillette Ball End handles found on Old Type, New Improved, and NEW era razors are seen frequently with cracks. Most handles feature at least a hairline crack, and some are split completely in half. This flaw is the result of a pressfitting technique which in combination with poor metallurgy resulted in weak handles and unusable razors.

Our handles are made from billet high quality brass and we have corrected the cracks by threading the neck and ball into the handle rather than press-fitting. The threads have been thread-locked so they will never come loose and will never crack. A beautiful Ball End handle can accompany most safety razor heads including Ikon, Edwin Jagger, Above the Tie, and etc. These handles are a great find, add one to your cart now.

    Brass ball end replica

    While nicely made with good checkering, it is a small handle. Thin also.

    Gillette ball end replica satisfactory

    I could believe that they made a replica of the Gillette ball end I love the style of it and it feels great and looks great I use it on a safety razor head that I ordered on amazon that was a head separated from the handle and I tried it the Gillette ball end and hits perfectly I used on the razor I use every time I shave the only downside is not the handle but it the picture it showed the head with the handle that look like the 1918 I think Gillette ball end razor with the open comb I hope they had the head I would had a replica of the vintage razor of the 1918 that had a better process metal on it but no but overall the handle work great I love it and will continue to use it I give this handle 5 stars.

    Well made replica handle

    I bought this handle in brass as a backup handle for my 1930s Gillette ball end razor. The workmanship is great and the handle fits my ball end perfectly. The replica handle looks almost identical to the original. Customer service was great. The handle arrived in just 3 days after placing my order.
