    I’m not going to say I’m no longer going to use my rose gold handle, but it’s got competition. Actually, they both do. It’s back to straights for a wile but - what a pleasure.
    It's a great handle! I use one with my Rockwell 6S head. Total weighs in at 155g.

    I also have the maggard hexagonal SS handles, which are also great but I tend to use alum on my fingers when using this handle.

    Like the look of the fatty, been looking for something for my mongoose to help counter weight that head. It definitely looks like it would fill the bill and I can work out at the same time.

    On a somewhat related, but purely silly note -

    There was a shop that used to sell beer-bells. These were for doing bicep curls in a pub. They were a 1.5 litre glass mug with a 10 pound weight on the base. They also had a bicycle bell attached to the handle in case the beer-bell required refilling.
