Strange question for you... Would anyone with one of the fancy bulbous razors be able to give me some measurements on the handle? I am interested in the length, and the diameter at the widest point of the handle. Much appreciated!

I am interested for both of these styles, or others if you have them!

Handle length of my gold lined Chatsworth is 4 3/8". I would assume that the faux ebony ones are the same. Diameter is approx 5/8". I had one of the fat ones, but thought it very unwieldy so I sold it and have no dimensions.

Hi Rodd,

I have the Fat handled one on the right....

Handle length measured from bottom of razor head to tip of handle is about 4"

Length of plastic handle 2.75"

Handle diameter at widest point 7/8"

Hope that helps,

Neale

I may be the only guy who would have a big grin while buying broken razors.
At the same time, can't help but feel for the gentleman who dropped his daily shaver. :(

Hi Boss,
In a tragically ironic twist, I believe it was licensed to PETA as a sightseeing vessel. Actually, I'd heard there was alcohol involved as well.
Always glad to help,

I got the razor in the mail yesterday, temporarily superglued it back together so I could try it and get a feel for the balance. It will be destroyed shortly, but until then, look what I am buying...
