    I received this razor from @Dave in KY in his recent PIF. And while I like heavy handles, this being kind of long, it was really heavy. So I decided what was needed was to shorten it some. I really didn't want to spend time finishing the end of the handle so I put an end cap I got from @twhite into place. No epoxy needed as it's a tight fit. Flanked by a Gillette New LC and a Gillette Goodwill, the handle is slightly longer than those two, with much better weight.
