12 mm max. diameter .Beautiful job on the knurling. I like the apparent grippiness at top and bottom too. May I ask the maximum diameter?

No,it is not .Is that handle anodized?
So it has a titanium center and brass ends then? Was wondering how you got the coloration, including the knurling which looks brass also from the pics...on my screen anyway...No,it is not .
It was heated to almost 400 C though ,so to install the two brass ends.
Hadn't t adjusted the white balance of my camera ....So it has a titanium center and brass ends then? Was wondering how you got the coloration, including the knurling which looks brass also from the pics...on my screen anyway...
Feel like ripping my hair out! According to tracking, mine's been stuck in customs for more than a week ...
Funny. I've had two Vostok's come from Roosia with *no* problems or holdups ...

Tracking... curse or blessing?
We can wait for pictures, as long as you post them within ten minutes of getting the package.
They could get a bit addictive....
A titanium handle makes such a difference - the weight is perfect (mine is 53g) and allows for a wider handle, like 15-16mm which is nice to grip. I also like the balance with a titanium handle - it allows more weight to be shifted towards the head, which I find a lot more manoeuvrable.
I also booked the same paragraph.Yep - that's the work of Evgeny Koshelev and I also bought one of his handles. Good price and easy to deal with. I used an online translator to send him messages in Russian and that went well. Love mine. Mine is 85 x 16mm and 53g. Just right.
