Hello,
My name is Stephanos and I'm from Greece.
I do not have a large razor collection ,but only few of them .
A Timeless SS 0.95 SC ,the Tatara Masamune OC and of course the awesome Christopher Bradley razor ( SB D & OC E on the way ) .
Fantastic razor !
Smooth and efficient.
And I really like the brass material , being a machinist.
Do not get me wrong ,I do like stainless steel ,but brass has something special .
A touch of "steam-punk " aesthetics .
A "retro " halo surrounding it .
So, I had to machine couple of quite rare ( ) razor handles & holders to match with my Karve heads ...
What do you think ?

Mine should be here before the end of the week. Started playing around with a brass darkening solution and it works pretty well. Used it on my Hone Type15 first and then on my E plate which I never use. Here are a couple pics.

it's going to be a rather long wait,until my open comb head from Karve arrives.
In the meantime i've started machining a special handle to match with this new Karve head.
Since Titanium and brass have a low electric potential difference between them ,
the galvanic corrosion phenomena are unlikely to happen .
At least at a bathrooms environment.
So ...
Press-fit brass ( C27200 alloy ) tip inserts into a solid Titanium (ASTM grade 2) handle body .
10 cm length ( ~ 4 " ) ,58 grams of weight and 12 mm max. diameter .
#10-32 threading remains to be done .
