    That's good to know. Is that Lee Valley as in Lee Valley Toolworks?

    That raises an interesting question. Does anyone here think it would be possible to put a wood handle on a DE? Has someone done it before?
    It would certainly make for a kick-ass set.

    I'm sure someone has put wood on a DE, I'll have to ask the man who made this one:

    The golden nib has DE heads that you could make a custom handle for. But, ya, I guess all you'd have to do is tap the wood handle correctly to the threads on a 3 piece DE.

    By wonky do you mean that the wood up against the head would look wrong? I can sort of see how that would be, the collar looks nice, and as you say it solves the thread issue.
