Great pic Dave!! The Yates head matched with the black Nodachi handle Sort of reminds me of Star Wars Darth Vader theme. Awesome

Thanks, it did take some grinder modifications to make it fit but came out well.

Just wondering whether I can use the Yates handle with my stainless Karve head and base plate as it looks like the Yates and Karve both use the 10-32 Thread instead of M5?

Currently using a Stando handle with the Karve but find the threads feel a bit "Gritty" when tightening which is probably due to the slight differences between M5 and the 10-32 Threads.

Have you tried it?

I have ordered a Yates razor but it has not arrived yet, I have a Karve head and base plate so was wondering whether the Yates handle would be compatible.

I will try it myself when the Yates arrives.

Oh ok. I can try it tonight and let you know. I have both razors. I think I've done it before though with no issues IIRC.

You might be in luck because the Karve and Yates use the same 10/32 threading.

Ti22 it works! I took a pic but it won't upload due to a poor internet connection where I'm at.
