Best DE Razor knurling.

I like the knurling on my Game Changer HD handle. It's a little deeper than that on my Edwin Jagger DE89 and Merkur 34C. I also like the feel of my Game Changer Barberpole handle. Not sure if this counts as knurling, but the pattern on the handle of my brass Karve is pretty awesome.
 
More of a dimple than knurling but This is my favorite. Tibam Ohio

Wolfman WRH1, Wolfman Darwin....Gillette Red Tip, President, Diplomat, Fatboy, 3rd Gen Aristocrat UK.
Just some I admire.

The only one I will use though is the WRH7....just the sexiest handle ever made IMO.
 
Custom Tibam titanium here as well. Nothing beats deep knurling and light weight.

I have the Razorock Barber Pole handle and it's noticeably deeper/gripper than my DE89 knurled handle.
 
The Stirling Fort Worth handle has a nice knurl to it. Hard to keep clean but the grip is excellent. Paired with an Evo DOC it makes for one of the most aggressive razors I've ever used.
Also the Triad hexagon helix. It's stainless but the grey brushing in the "knurles"complements a Ti head nicely and gives it some needed weight.

I felt the very early Triad handles had the best grip. I had four of Toby's early turnings and loved them. Notice the serrations at the edge of each groove. Some people might not have liked them as much as I did, but they were slip-proof. Two have moved on but I still have two.
