Does anybody know where to get some FL handle sold separately? (preferably a DHS FL handle)
I sanded my handle too much and it's now too late to go back...

I need some help.

Thanks.
Still looking...

I think you would probably be better off buying a new blade. I am guessing the balance of your blade is already off and I don't think that handles are meant to be taken off and changed.

Taobao is your best bet.
Viscaria FL - 91g

+ Hexer HD 2.1 Red - 49.3g(68.5g 〃 〃)

Koreans do exactly what you did to your blade when they shave their J-Pen handle throats to fit their fingers. Sometimes, they over-do it and it is ah-crap stuff. They don't sweat it though, coach ALWAYS has a lot of extra cork laying around, so they crazy glue a small, thin (think 2 mm thick) piece of cork real good to the affected area, then go back to the shaving and sanding...

and VOILLA, a comfy, custom fitted handle that is just perfect to them.

Many from taobao to choose from if you can get a buying agent to help you import one. How about making a custom Viscaria with ST handle for cheap?

My EJ/collector side also extends to saving handles from broken blades. I should have a FL handle somewhere from a King blade. If I find it and you want it, it's free + postage.

edit: sorry, I just checked and the handles are buried too deep in my shed. Perhaps you could simply buy a cheap DHS recreation blade and remove the handle from that.

Thank for the help.
I tried Taobao but they don't have separate FL handle.
Maybe I'm better off buying a new blade due to blade's balance...
It's sad..

what blade is it ?
you can always use wood putty and tape to add some girth.

Grip tape. Wood filler. You can also dip the handle a few times in poly. :D
