Gillette Ball End Replica Handle - Universally Threaded

SKU: 4037

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.

    Gillette Ball End Replica Handle - Nickel

    I ended up with an extra Old Type Gillette razor head with a razor lot I bought and was looking for an appropriate handle, the head was near mint so the Razor Emporium ball end nickel replica handle was a perfect fit! The handle is solid with impeccable workmanship. It has great weight and fits the razor head perfectly. It helps give a great shave and looks great!

    Gillette ball end replica handle

    So awesome that Razor Emporium makes this replica handle since almost all of the Gillette original handles are cracked. Practically a new razor with the razor guard and cap revamped paired with this ball end replica. Thanks Razor Emporium.
