I really love my 1912, but it's got this dinky 2.25 inch (57mm) handle. So I've been looking for a longer handled 1912 in poor condition so I can try out a more conventionally sized handle.
I was scrolling down a "gem razors" ebay search and enlarged this:
I thought: "Oh yeah, that what I'm talking about!" I moused over the second picture and saw this:
Sweet! A completely trashed head, I'll be able to "one bid" this and maybe pick it up for 99 cent, but a glance to the right deflated my hopes. The dude has it as a BIN for $28.
My question for the SE greybeards like HT is: Would this handle (for a Gem Junior) even fit my little 1912?
I don't wanted to spend a bunch of time and dignity wheedling this guy down from $28 to 3 or 4 bucks if it's not going fit anyway.
Thanks!
