    From what I have read, you are pretty safe using #10-32 threads for a DE razor handle. There is a metric thread too that is similar M5X0.8.

    Thanks - that really helps. I only have two Maggard's heads on my modern DE's but haven't checked out my old Gillette's. After switching to straights I haven't really looked at acquiring any more DE's like Wolfman or ATT so I have no idea there.

    You are welcome. The Wolfman DE head takes #10X32 threaded handles just like any 3 piece vintage Gillette DE in case you ever consider getting one.

    Very nicely done! I have absolutely no idea how the knurling is accomplished but apparently you figured it out quite well.

    Nice handle the knurling tool we have at work is two wheels you just basically force into the piece you are turning. Is the one you use similar in function? Your knurling is way nicer than what I can accomplish with ours. Maybe our work one is wore out??

    The one I used has two wheels. Do you angle the knurling tool or run the wheels flush the length of the tool? If the teeth are clean it should be fine and not worn out.
