Karve uses a 10-32 thread. Says so on the website.
If you try to put a M5 post in a karve handle, it is not going to fit.
If you put the Karve 10-32 head on a M5 handle, it will fit, but there is a possibility that if the M5 handle is sloppily threaded it might not hold the 10-32 thread tight, and you could damage some threads (metals would determine which would be damaged). If it is stainless in stainless, its going to be dependent on the hardness of each piece.
I really like my Karve, so much I might order one in stainless also!
Good luck!
