Does anyone have both types of baton handles (open and closed ended)? Is there a difference in weight? Do we know if they were made consecutively or concurrently?
Baton Handle

I've got a couple Gem 1912's with hollow handles and these two Treet's with the solid handle. I'm sure there's a little bit of difference in weight, but I can't really feel it just holding them. I have no idea what the timeline on the baton handles were, but they are kind of cool.

Tom, I have a black one with a Gem Junior head I just aquired (my Grandpa's
and the only razor I will ever receive as a hand-me-down) that looks like those in your pic. But I am referring to this open ended one (no, I do not own it)? Have you seen this before?

Yes, I have a couple just like that one, and like I said I can't really feel any difference in weight between the hollow handle and the solid ones. Most of the Gem's came with the hollow handle, but I have seen a few with a solid handle, I just don't own any. Just the two Treet's.

Ah ok. I misunderstood. I thought you just owned the two in your picture. I should have known those were just the two that happened to be in your pocket when you answered my post. 
Thanks Tom.
Thanks Tom.Not exactly in my pocket, but, uh, within reach.
