Oh, and what is your favorite handle? My favorite handle has not even been made yet, would love the Timeless Ti Crown handle in steel!
Among those I have the Alpha Viper handle is my favorite. Too bad that their Bandit seems to have been cancelled rather than delayed, I am afraid there isn't much coming from Alpha anymore.
The cheap Maggard MR1 handle is my absolute favorite. It's not some fancy looking and shiny or made out of titanium for instance and it does have some cosmetic imperfections here and there, but I love it to bits.
Why you ask? Well, here's my long answer:
The weight of the handle is 54.5 although on the website is said to be 50 for whatever reason and for me it's not too light or too heavy.
The length is 82mm and for me anything in the 80-90mm I call the ''perfect'' length.
I don't know the specs of the diameter, but I also find it to be perfect - not too thin and not too thick.
The grip is also very good and I have absolutely no complains.
Here's how the handle looks like:
Yaqi made a similar handle, but the middle part looks like plastic and it comes in different colors as well:
A while I go I thought that the Razorock handles are going to be a much better option, since they look a bit better, but when my Barber Pole and Radio Knob arrived, I didn't like them at all. While the length is similar to the MR1 and all of them have very nice grip, the weight of the Razorock handles is almost double and they also feel a bit thicker to my liking. It's not that the Razorock handles are terrible by any means, but they feel clunky and odd on my hand, even though I don't have small hands and fingers. I also don't get the whole - ''I have big hands and I can only use large handles'' thing, since those handles are supposed to be hold with 2-4 fingers and not with the whole hand. Am I holding my handles wrong or what?
