Stork razors makes a 90 and 95mm Darwin handle when available.

Thank you for that information, Max. 
Does anyone know how long is the Wolfman Darwin Handle?

I believe it's 90mm.

Windrose out of England makes them. They list on eBay and Etsy. Many times they are sold out, but you might find one there. I have no idea of the length, but their listing has that information.

Here's the Windrose Darwin 303 Stainless from the bay (sold out). Looks like 93 to my old blind eyes.[Image: a7c34269053ad039af4b4763829abce3.jpg]

It's hard to tell from your picture or even the ones from the seller but what's the finish like? Satin or polished?

From the listing:

"Made from 303 Stainless Steel(non-magnetic). All of the handles have a nice satin/matte finish."

That is correct.

Not handles only, but Bull Goose had a Darwin clone in SS. I had one with the original mild plate, and added the more aggressive plate when it was made available, but sold it. Standard Darwin size and the handle seemed too short.

Some years ago Jurgen Hempel made some complete Darwin razor copies in Ti. Wish I'd gotten one of those but didn't. I'm not sure whether Jurgen is making handles anymore.

Oddly enough though it is the same length as the Bull Goose offering I get along just fine with the Wolfman Darwin. The facets make the smooth surface non slip, and easy to manipulate while shaving.
