    I could let you borrow the original Ever-Ready handle, so you can make a "true to size" copy/template, if you like. Some collectors might want the original sized ones for their collection.

    Now you mention this. I could have sent a handle with the Hussy. I have two with the short wood handle. A 1907ish ER like the one up there and a 1910 Gem Jr. Bar. I really enjoy shaving with them. And I do mean really enjoy it. I was suprised how much I liked them.

    Thanks, Scott. That would be great.
    Now, he mentions it. It will be nice to see a real one and get the correct dimensions.

    The handle on the every ready and Gem look identical. If that falls through you can borrow one of mine.

    Thanks, I think those old Star, Gem, and Ever-Ready lather catchers are some of the most beautiful works of razor art ever made. When I started collecting, I was able to pick up several, for next to nothing. Now, they can get a little pricy, for those in good shape. One day I will have a nice display cabinet, and will have many of my favorites on display.
