Does anyone know where I can obtain a 'luxury' handle for the Sensor razor blades? I want something that is heavier than the cheap Gillette version. It really doesn't have to be expensive or fancy. Just heavier.

I haven't seen any, but I was thinking that perhaps you could find a nice piece of horn or antler ( if you like that look ) cut it to the desired length and drill it out and then insert the sensor handle into it.....secured with some 2 part epoxy......:confused:

Horn or antler tip with the point at one end would work best......

Might be cool and add a little heft to it :)

Hmmmm...not sure. I know many places sell the upgraded handles for the Mach3, but not sure about the Sensor. I'd say try places like ClassicShaving (http://www.classicshaving.com/catalog/item/522941/194585.htm) or maybe The English Shaving Company (http://www.theenglishshavingcompany.com/cgi-bin/psProdDet.cgi/IERC||@cMen's%20Gillette%AE%20razors@b|0|user||35| ). The second one isn't cheap with the exchange rate, but you could definitely get a nice handle!

Drill a hole and add some lead shot and cover with some epoxy.
You can also have a custom wood turner cut you one a lathe.
