I wanted to make my brother a razor handle for his birthday, but he doesn't use a Gillette, so I couldn't use any kits. I ended up breaking apart a Harry's razor that I had, which is what he uses, and took the razor head from that to make him a custom razor.

I made the handle from one of Tim McKenzie's diamond dust acrylic blanks. I had to carve a hole for the razor head by hand, which was pretty tedious. Then when I was sanding the handle it snapped off the piece that was being held in the chuck. Sanding without a lathe is not nearly as enjoyable...

Overall I'm pretty pleased with the outcome though! C and c welcome.

Nice concept and execution of a kitless razor. The cartridge looks similar to the Gillette Fusion. What's the attraction of Harry's cartridge - lower price?
 
Thanks, all!

I'm still loving these blanks, Tim.

Steve - Yes, I think they are lower cost. I tried one a while back (the one that I destroyed to make this) and didn't like the blades. It's what my brother uses though.
