Aftermarket handles for Gillette NEW

[boogieman_]

I have a Gillette NEW long OC and would like to get an aftermarket handle for it. Does anyone know where to start looking for these? My google is weak on this one...

Many of the aftermarket handles may be too wide in the shaft to fit between the slots that the guides fit into under the baseplate of the new.

I know the UFR Razor handles do fit as I have a Godzilla mounted on my LC New.

What are you looking for in the new handle? More heft? See this: http://badgerandblade.com/vb/showth...tte-NEW-bar-handle-(for-more-heft)?highlight= and the links provided therein.

Since I started the thread I have ordered some Tungsten putty (carp fishing tackle actually) on ebay, it should be here any day. Going from the density figures one can find on the web and the measurements i took, the volume of the handle should be able to hold about 20g of the stuff. We shall see...

I have a new designed handle coming out in a few weeks that is my rendition of the original NEW handle but much heavier and wider and it's in brass!

The common bar handle? Is that the original NEW handle you're referring to? That would be awesome. The common bar handle is probably my favorite handle from an appearance standpoint.
