That would be 92mm/3.62 in. I acquired the Superior LC handleless and caseless, so I made the handle and the case. I have made a bunch of handles over the past few years (since 2017).
Thanks Jim, I'm getting one made and I settled on three and three quarter inches so I guess I got close.

Lather Catcher Sunday's Shave
Cold Water Rinse
Proraso Red
Jayaruh #206 2-band badger
Fuzzy Catcher
Personna GEM SS PTFE
CWR
Pinaud Vanilla AS
The Proraso Red Shave Cream lathered well with Jayaruh #206 two-band Badger. Two passes and touch ups with the Fuzzy Catcher Lather Catcher with a Personna GEM SS PTFE gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Pinaud Vanilla After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Awesome razor there. I never used the vintage Seaforth I am assuming that this is a knockoff of the scent?
Happy shaves to ya!

Roger Quintero made me this 3D printed razor based on his Stoll Jr. lather catcher and the Darwin razor's handle. I made a box for it to live in.

Very cool. And the wood goes very well with the razor head. At least it looks like a good match in the pictures. Eventually I am going to have to get a few more of the different 3D printed razors.

Today, I used my C.V. Heljestrand lather catcher with a Heljestsrand wedge blade.
