Well, I guess I am ready to join C.R.O.C. I was gifted both the Cobra Classic and the King Cobra with two handles. I am enjoying my shaves with them this week. Here are the first three shaves. My favorites are the Cobra Classic and the King Cobra with the metal handle. I made a box to hold them both. And here is today's shave.
Guys - I know it is a long shot... but here goes... I understand that in the past a number of vendors made replacement handles for the Galco King Cobra. One of these was the UFO handles by Rafael. I have a client that asked me to make some handles modelled after ( yeah I know... copied...) the Rafael UFO design. I know its a fairly common design in reality - a barber pole. However, the King Cobra version had a removeable part that allowed the stem of the handle to be used as a replacement on the King Cobra. So I will cut to the chase - I want to make some of tose handle specifically for the King Cobra in Titanium, Steel, bronze and copper. I want to make sure it right and in order to do thsi I need a King Cobra head in my sweaty hands in order to get the measurements. Would any kind brother see their way to loaning me a King Cobra for 2-3 weeks so I can measure it up?
