This is very strange. I had a Bob's Razor Works XXL Deluxe handle which I used with my DE89 head for a year. I traded that for a non-XXL BRW handle recently and was using that on my Gillette NEW long comb head. I also have an Ikon handle. My old BRW worked for a year on the DE89 head.
The new BRW regular handle does not thread easily onto the DE89 head and I am perplexed. The Ikon handle spins on it easily and both handles spin on the Gillette NEW easily. But it feels like the threads don't match on the DE89 head. They have to be the same thread pitch or the old BRW handle would not have worked so well.
What could be wrong??
So as not to be confusing, both handles spin easily on the Gillette NEW, and the Ikon also spins easily on the DE89. I'm only having trouble with the BRW bull mastiff, DE89 combo. I am perplexed.
